I think with the new series of pound coins here in the UK, the quality control has been well below standard. There are numerous minor faults but...
Assuming the first line of the vernier scale is the zero, I would read it as 18.8mm and so your 19mm is closer.
Ah! I thought you meant a chart with sizes for threepences and groats and so on!
Where in Krause for 16th century? I thought they only went back to 1600?
I am pretty sure it cannot be a groat on this occasion. Elizabeth 3rd/4th coinage - 1561 to 1577 includes no groats. Size always needs to be taken...
Yes - Elizabeth Threepence seems right by the size. Mintmark is the Eglantine, which was used 1573 to 1578, third and fourth coinage, so that fits...
Wow! You reactivated a 6 year old thread! I never knew I still had a watch on this one.

We need someone to do 1556 first - them's the rules....

Very nice @Cucumbor but I think we were on 1557 in this thread? :)
I had this one given to me by a grateful customer - 1908 Penny in pretty good shape. Just makes it into my collection as an upgrade: [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
... and I was just too late to include this in the "Ireland" topic in follow my leader, so here it is instead. Edward I Penny minted between 1279...
Picked up this one today as an upgrade for my James I Sixpence: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] So nice to get a decent portrait for a change!
... and then these 4 are because I am sure I can find someone who loves them! [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Sorry - been shopping again. These first three are for me: [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Yes there is an odd rough ring at the top. I had thought it was a lug from a possible suspender, but the jewel idea is also possible. Much as I...
