@Brian,

hard to say.

Could be an early anglo-saxon coin (7th to 8th century) or Frisian Sceatta (8th cent.). The diameter fits - but all I know there was minting in silver only.

The only coin similar to your's I found ist an AETHELREAD "Porcupine" (what about the reverse ????? - please show). But if it is one of those extremely rare specimens I think it would be a fake - for sure.

regards
Stefan

Thanks for the kind advice, petzlaff.
I don't know these coins very much, but...uuum....having a fake coin is very sad!

Sorry, I haven't seen the reverse side yet....
As soon as possible, I will post it here.

I continue asking more opinions and advices from more collectors, researchers and dealers. Thanks.

Best, Brian
