Hammered Coins
Hammered Coin Auctions
These include coins made before 1662, when machines came into use for production of coinage.
A popular collecting field, and sometimes it can be the smallest of details that distinguish between coins. Harper Field recently sold a Richard III groat which made over £1,200 - far in excess of the value of a Richard II coin with only the most minor of changes in detail, and with the best part of 1000 years of wear and handling trying its best to obscure it.
