pretty sure its Edward IV

I'd go for Edward IV, too. Probably second reign coinage.
A nice find.

i thought it was a henry the 4th ,but will trust jayreef ,he's usually right.

would not say that

its a toss between edward IV and Henry V

(henry IV did not have that type of reverse i think)

this is what made me think henryIV http://www.yorkcoins.com/henry_iv.htm

The dots are not joined together, so chances are it is a Eddie.
Still Stunning find.

The pellets are well different from the one given as an example of a henry.
