As always, a cut coin requires some detective work to determine the mint and moneyer

This is a decent specimen but this type of cut coin is now very common

The first gold coin unearthed by the finder and it’s a rare mule of a Henry V noble

An exceptional example of a a St Eadmund memorial style penny

The heavy clipping of this siliqua makes identification difficult

An attractive coin despite the nicks on the side

Valued for a 50/50 agreement with the landowner

A common detecting find but its condition is well above average

With the mint mark unclear, the shape of the bust and the stops in the legend tell us the type.

It’s a gold medal commemorating the 50th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II’s accession to the throne.
