It looks all the world like the image seen on Spur Ryals (I wish!), I 'think' I can see an 'X' underneath the crown and possibly an 'S', but apart from these snippets I just can't find a match. I've trawled over 1000 images of coin weights but apart from getting blurred vision and a thumping head ache I haven't seen a match. In case anyone's wondering I didn't attempt to clean it, just gave it a waxing after a wash under the tap. </p><p> Thanks to all in advance!<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[ATTACH=full]1389533[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1389534[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1389535[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1389536[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
