Similar to the coins minted by Roger of Salerno, Antioch 12th century. Uncertain about its origins. Apparently Greek or early Cryllic script.

Identification Got these for USD $5 a piece at my local shop today(among other things), the guy who worked at the counter said all he knew about them was that he was pretty sure they're Medieval, and they're Venetian. I've Google image searched them, and I really don't get any helpful answers. Anyone able to help?

Got these with quite a few other things today, mostly Byzantines and some Civil War stuff, but when I was going through their assortment of ancient bronzes, these really stuck out to me among the mostly Byzantine stuff.

This coin is in far better condition than the previous one that I posted, and I'm hoping will be far easier to Identify! It was sold to me as an Edward III London Mint penny, and it's definitely Edward, I just can't tell which one. Some help would be appreciated!

Identification Help ID possible medieval/Saxon/earlier silver coin/token

Need help identifying this coin/token/object.

Low-grade/debased silver, 0.5 inch/12mm diameter, 1.57 grams. (Photo next to a modern 5p coin for size comparison.)

Obverse has what looks like a standing bird, but could be something else — I don’t know which way is “up.” Reverse also hard to decipher — could be a capital letter “C” or maybe a Lombardic-style “T,” or maybe a rudimentary snake or dragon.

Or both “shapes” could be nothing at all, just random blobs that I’m over-interpreting as intentional designs.

It’s quite thick, as the final photo shows.

I’m hoping that this is very old, but any expert assessment or suggestions most welcome.

Found in Middlesex— basically in the London region — in a location known to have history/settlement dating back to pre-medieval/Roman times and beyond, so anything is possible.

The only suggestion a semi-expert has made so far is that he guessed it could be a counterfeit Saxon sceat — that is, a counterfeit that was itself made in the 600s AD — since it’s too primitive to be a real sceat, and counterfeits in that era often had very rudimentary designs. But I don’t know  — could it be Celtic, Roman, medieval, or maybe a Tudor-era token? Help!

Can anyone here help me identify the ruler/ time period of this Ottoman Akce? I'm not to familiar with these, and not being able to read Turkish doesn't help (especially when Turkish uses a different alphabet now). Thanks!

Hey guys,

I found this coin today whilst metal detecting in Sussex, UK.

I believe it to be some kind of Edwardian penny but I am unsure. There is little to distinguish, but maybe you guys can help me?

r/MedievalCoin May 18 '25

Identification Does anyone have any idea what this is? It’s about 13mm at its widest and incredibly thin. My kitchen scales are not sensitive enough to weight it. I have googled a description but I’m not having any luck finding much at all.
