<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PaddyB, post: 25298557, member: 40017&quot;]Very lovely coin, though not my area of interest.</p><p>From the books I think I see Robert III first issue, Edinburgh mint and will date between 1390 and 1403. Must be VF (UK grading) for a hammered coin, so a lovely example to have. The weakness to the detail of the pellets on the reverse will be from the original dies. </p><p>I can&#039;t see any reason to doubt its authenticity. Whether it was worth what you paid for it all depends on the price and how much you love it!</p><p>The only book I have on this area is a Coincraft offering from 1999, and that lists a VF specimen as £140. Prices have gone up a long way since then. If I wanted one, I would be happy if I could get it around £500 but would not be surprised to see it run towards £1000. There is a less good Perth mint example on Ebay at present, NGC graded XF40 for $1350.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
