Penelope Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 It's Elizabethan so will be of little interest to the Towton trust as there will be at over 100 years time difference between the coin and the start of Elizabeth 1 reign. im sure my farmer will be well chuffed with his half of £40. i will tell him when i see him next week. im going to get in touch with the battle of towton trust/society and see if its of any use to them. im not really bothered about the money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobt Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 The battlefield covers a huge area, I shoot a fair bit of it, the landowners generally dont let detectorists on anymore as they used to turn up on mass, bit like pigeon shooters one gets the ok next day turns up with all his mates.?

castletyne Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 so is it a shilling or a sixpence I think its a sixpence i have a few in my collection size should be about 25mm diameter Its looks like it has a date on it and from what i remember the shiiling had no date but i may be wrong about that Shillings should be about 30mm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
