Henry lll hammered coin ?

Post by Lower pic »

Hello.

Couple hours this morning on the neighbouring farm.

I have tried to ID this beautiful little hammered in my book (Seaby 28th edition, 1993, my friend gave it to me for my birthday. Is it a good one or should I buy a more up to date one?)
Any how I believe it is a Henry lll, class lll a, London mint.
Found 4 inches deep, 12 on the nox,drilles rye grass.
Please correct me if I am wrong!

Thanks.
