Mints and mintmarks
Tower mint, London.
Engraver and mintmaster marks
No initial mark, lis, or pheon are recorded for the small-portrait group.
Identification and varieties
The full reign range is a broad attribution for this undated group, not an annual issue list. The pheon variety is conventionally placed late in the reign, about 1505–1509. No mintmark means an identified unmarked variety, not a mark lost through clipping.
Measurements
Recorded specimen measurements, not a fixed specification for every coin. Hammered flans vary.
