Coins and Historical Medals

France, Philip IV (1285-1314), Maille tierce à l’O rond, 1.18g/12h (Dup. 219C). About very fine, surfaces a little rough £60-£80

Found in North Hertfordshire (PAS BH-79CB28)

Only the fourth coin of this type registered on the Portable Antiquities Scheme. Despite the fact that it was approximately equivalent to the contemporary English penny, these coins do not seem to have circulated in quantity in England, perhaps due to their radically different design.
