126 Mr. Longstaffe on Groats found at Embleton. 



29. — Obverse. Cross patonce henric. di gra : rex angli. z. 

 eranc. — Leaf on neck. 



Eeverse. posvi pierced mullet. — Dot outside of pellets 

 under tas and don. ..... 



30. — Obverse. Same. 



Eeverse. lon : don. 



This coin has the outer circle almost completely cut off, 

 but there is room for a mark after posvi. The stops 

 in lon : don are little crosses, like those in some 

 groats of Henry VII., not small quatrefoils or saltires. 

 The object on the breast is stalked, and may be a 

 cone. ...... 



31. — Obverse. Same. 



Eeverse. Dot under don only. No other marks. No 



Stops in CIVITAS LONDON. .... 



32. — Obverse. Legend same. Leaf on breast instead of on 

 the neck. A small saltire at each side of the neck. 

 Reverse. Same as last. .... 



33. — Obverse. Legend same. Eleur-de-lis on neck. Nothing 

 at each side of neck. 



Eeverse. don : — Dots outside of pellets, under tas and 

 don. ....... 



34. — Obverse. No mint mark. Nothing on neck. 

 Eeverse. No marks whatever. Much clipped.

EDWARD IV. 

 Heavy Coinage. 



35. — Obverse. As 33, with change of name. 



Eeverse. Small saltire before posvi. No dots near 

 pellets. . . ... 



36. — MM. Eose on both sides. No dots. No marks in 

 crviTAS london. The termination of the cusp under 

 the breast is one of the small trefoils which are frequent 

 on all the cusps of the light groats. Quatrefoil on each 

 side of neck. . . . . 



Light Coinage. 



37. — A poor specimen of Hawkins's No. 6. The mm. given 

 by him is a rose. The cusp on the breast seems to 

 have a fleur of the old character, and the crown re- 

 sembles that of the heavy groats. Annulet at each 

 side of neck. Open lozenge enclosing a dot after civitas. 

 This coin is so much cut down that it barely outweighs 

 my specimens of the half-groats of Edward III.
