The 1344-1351 Penny Third Coinage Durham Mint - Edward III

Silver Penny of King Edward III minted at the Durham Mint between 1344 and 1351. Third Coinage. Diameter 18mm, weighs 1.099g.

There are a LOT of variants of Edward III silver pennies which appear over his 50-year reign. There were also variations in the silver content and weight of the pennies. Several mints were used. Combined with the fact that these were hammered coins, it is probable that no two coins are exactly alike. Clipping was common.
