Some Edward is all I can tell. I can't tell one Edward from another. I can tell it is from the Canterbury mint, though you probably already knew that.

I'm better with Greek and Roman.

Tom usually Ed 1st Pennies are around 19mm in diameter.This one is about 16mm-17mm but i guess it couild have been clipped.I struggle between the 3 Edwards myself.It could also be an Ed III
