Edward I introduced the groat denomination, or fourpence. It was not popular and was probably only produced for a short time, making Edward I groats very rare. The denomination was revived by Edward III and was produced for centuries afterwards.
Many of the surviving Edward I groats were mounted as jewelry and/or gilded. Many are fairly beat up, with scratches and other damage very common.
This groat has a quatrefoil of two lines, which is seen on varieties f and g. Most of the known Edward I groats have a quatrefoil of three lines.

There is some confusion as to the proper attribution of the groats of Henry IV and V. Generally, those with the pellet and annulet next to crown are attributed to Henry IV, and those with the mullet on the chest to Henry V. The many mules of the two types are more difficult to clearly attribute. This one has a mullet and a reverse with multiple saltires, which clearly puts it in the reign of Henry V.

S.2492 Mary IGroat of Mary I (1553-1558)
First issue (1553-1554)
Mintmark: Pomegranate
O: MARIA D G ANG FRA Z HIB REGI
R: VERITAS TEMPORIS FILIA
Mary, daughter of Henry VIII by his first wife Catherine of Aragon, is a controversial figure in English history because of her religious persecutions against Protestants. She gets the moniker "Bloody Mary" because under her watch several hundred Protestants were burned at the stake. Mary's husband, Philip II of Spain, was also unpopular in England. Mary died childless and her sister Elizabeth undid pretty much all of her political and religious changes.
Coins of Mary take two flavors- in just her name prior to her marriage to Philip, and after 1554 with Philip's name. This coin belongs to the earlier issue. These coins frequently demonstrate large scratches across the queen's face, done intentionally as Mary was not liked in her time. This particular example is remarkable free of surface marks.

RIC 861 VAR. (unlisted with no mintmarks)
COLLECTION NO. 1544
Note: Adventvs Probi Avg and Soli Invicto series without any mintmarks are rare and desirable. They were struck in Cyzicus, Serdica, Siscia, Rome and Lugdunum and were distributed as part of the imperial donativa during the Emperor's Adventvs (visit) to these cities. Attribution of these coins to a particular mint - due to lack of any mintmarks - is done on the basis of careful analysis of their style.

Roman Republic; anonymous issuer Crawford 53/2, Group 9 RN-E2; Sydenham 229; RSC --.
AR denarius; struck after 208 B.C. (after 211 B.C. per Crawford), 3.62 g., 17.90 mm. max., 0°
Obv: Helmeted head of Roma right; X (mark of value) behind. The visor is peaked with two raised lines above, widely separated triangular griffon tufts on the back of the helmet pointing outward. Roma has large eyes and an angular profile.
Rev: The Dioscuri with streaming cape, each holding spear, on horseback facing right, two stars above, raised ROMA in a rectangular frame (long lines above and below, short line to right).
Crawford 53/2 introduces the peaked helmet visor. This group is not a single variety, but an assembly of many different varieties, all of which are ornamentally similar, and roughly from the same point in time (Crawford suggests “after 211 B.C.” but nearly all subsequent research suggests later, probably sometime after 208 B.C.). Crawford illustrates 8 stylistic sub-varieties in plate X without any descriptive differentiation in the catalogue. Several distinct sub-varieties have been discovered subsequent to the publication of RRC. On his website (http://stevebrinkman.ancients.info/anonymous),Steve Brinkman presents ten groups. each of which represents a distinct issue, separated either by time or place. This is supported by the fact that as of this time, no die links are known to span across the boundaries of these groups, suggesting that the dies never shared a “die box” in the same time, or mint workshop.
Group 9 is a large issue with several stylistic varieties. The dies of this issue were obviously cut by many celators and many distinctive styles exist. One of the two most common varieties is represented in Crawford on Plate X number 20. This coin is from the other common variety, known as the large eyes/angular profile variety. It is not in RRC, but is catalogued as RN-E2 in an article by Brinkman and Pierluigi Debernardi, “A New Arrangement for RRC 53/2,” published in Revue Numismatique (volume 175e; 2018 ed.). Group 9 is most likely the latest group to have been struck.
Crawford's suggestion that the 53/2 series was struck on a weight standard of 4.5 g. appears to be somewhat in question, and a Debernardi study suggests that perhaps this very large series spanned the transition from 4.5 to 3.8 g. The Group 9 sample is large and clearly suggests a 3.8 g. standard. This combined with its absence in many hoards containing the earlier groups suggests that group 9 was is squarely in the later period when the aim for a single coin was 3.8 g.StkpApr 18, 2020
