| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing crowned bust of King Edward IV within a tressure of arches, the cusps adorned with trefoils; no mintmarks or additional symbols flanking the bust. The king is depicted in a stylised, frontal effigy typical of late medieval English hammered coinage, wearing a flared crown with prominent cross-fleury finial. The bust is set within a double inner circle, with the surrounding Gothic-influenced circumscription legend in uncial lettering separated by pellet stops. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Edward IV's second reign saw a major recoinage effort tied to the 1464 weight reduction that had lowered the groat standard — by 1480, the halfgroat was being struck at the lighter weight that had by then been standard for over a decade. Spink 2105 covers issues from the final years of his reign, before his sudden death in April 1483 at age 40 cut short what had become a relatively stable monetary period after the chaos of the 1460s and 70s.
Dies for this period were produced across several mints, and attribution to a specific facility often depends on mint mark alone.
