Full description
Fragmentary hammered silver half groat (Trench 5 topsoil). This appears to have been folded prior to its loss, and seems to have broken along this fold. It is badly worn, but appears to be a half groat of Henry VI (1422-61). One small object found unstratified in Trench 3 is a winged belt fitting with three rivet holes, probably medieval. (1)
