For sale is a LLanddona Hoard Edward I silver penny, S.1397 London mint, comes with YorkCoins' paper insert. Shows the typical beach erosion - sandy dark and crusty surfaces. Lots of character!

---SOLD--Thanks!

The Early Bird got the worm.

But the Early Bird also enjoyed the fast flip that resulted.

I would have liked to see this piece but I'm just as happy to have been the middleman here. It looks to have had a fascinating history. Hey, FB- if the writeup is still on the York Coins site or elsewhere, can you link it up for us? "LLanddona Hoard" sounds vaguely familiar, but I don't remember the story on it. Obviously it was Welsh, with those double Ls and double Ds in the name.

Here ya go - LINK

Uh, oh. Looks like he's sold out of them over there, too. Swampboy, you just got this one in time.

I'm glad I opened my trap.

Fascinating. Thanks for the link.

Gil, you're lucky I just read that story after agreeing to flip the coin over to you.

Edit to add- I'll just have to dig my own this fall, if the whole "LordM to England" trip thing pans out.
