This is only the second example of this coin that I have seen as a detecting find.

Some detective work to find the moneyer and from that the mint

The coin is an example of the voided long cross and stars type, which pre-dates the more common REX SCOTORVM pennies.

It’s an example of the type of find that would bring a glow to the heart of any detectorist: an Anglo-Saxon penny.

A six shilling piece of a class known as Falconer’s first issue.

This sterling was struck for Hugh de Chalon, who was Prince Bishop of Liege from 1296 to 1301

The favourite coin in the finder’s collection.
