Today we´re exploring the key coin denomination of England, the silver Penny, taking a quick look at its history, looking at some of the most well known examples and its multiples and fractions. Medieval numismatics can be a harder niche to get into, but its very unique art and style is really fascinating!

Was an absolute pleasure having my coins shared with your subscribers. Thank you for asking me to come on and the video turned out incredibly well 😃
Thanks! Your filming skills are great and these coins are a beauty! Hopefully we´ll have you back in this channel soon :)
@@ClassicalNumismatics much appreciate matey. Lots more to come from us both in the future I’m sure 😀
Terrific examples! I appreciated seeing them
Those are some beautiful coins!
Great job guys !!
Fun fact: one penny in medieval England was worth a a day's labour.
When I subscribed, I was interested only in gold and silver coins as I am into "numistacking". Now, I cannot miss any of these great videos, regardless of the metal contents :) Thanks!
My two favorite numismatists. Excellent.
Thank you 😀
Nice work once again. Medieval coins are so full of history and beauty. Edward lll silver groat is the loveliest of them all. Wish l could have one..
Strangely enough I found one early last year. In a small field I'd been over a few times. I was so impressed I'd saved it from the farm machinery.
You can only about 100 pounds minimum. Medieval Groats are fairly commen.
Crazy to think maybe some of our ancestors at one point held those coins
Thank you! I've learned something new and interesting!
Have a few of those coins.
Great video and very informative for us interested in Medieval English hammered coins.
Thank you for sharing with us this amazing stories and coins!!
Fantastic information! Thank you
Fascinating - I love a bit of history. Imagine who held that coin and why!
Great program, with fantastic examples!
Only Medieval coin I have in my collection so far is an AR Dirham, during the rein of Al-Walid I from the Umayyad Caliphate dated around 705-715AD.
Fantastic video! Educational, interesting, well filmed, good narration.... Love it!
Great video , Luke and Leo
I love the high production of these videos, keep up the great work!!
Thanks! I put a lot of love in these videos, Im glad to know you all like it :)
I have a gem Anglo-Saxon Sceat from 695-740 and a gem Penny of King John (the father of Henry III featured in this video.)
[The inscriptions on Richard the Lionhearted’s and John’s Pennies were of their father Henry II and not their own names.]
Very impressive video. In spite the fact that I've collected British coins in my early numismatic life, I learned a lot from this video. Thanks.
Excellent vid mate
Excellent video! Z is the shortening for latin ET ("and"), also in some coins in many countries (Germany, England, etc.) you find "9" as abbreviation of the latin masculine nominative ending (US, VS), for example: EDWARD9 (= EDWARDVS, for Edward VI).
Great video mates!
Great content guys love it
Very beautiful coins
Were freaking going medieval on your currency.
stunning offa penny Luke
Hey Ryan, thanks for your comment. Unfortunately that’s the only coin that I do not own. One day 🤞
Most of my medieval coins are byzantine, but I also have some crusader coins and a 14th-century german heller.
Awesome video, as always! Can I request one on medieval deniers as well?
Interested in English Saxon coinage.
Lots of Saxon coinage on my channel Sam 😊 hope you enjoy!
Can you make a video about medieval French coins?
Its not my expertise, but definitely a topic I want to tackle one day!
In terms of medieval coins, I have:
1 Stater and 1/2 Stater of Raja Raja Chola I from the Chola Dynasty (985AD)
1 kasu of Krishnadevraya of Vijaynagar from the Vijayanagar Empire (1509AD)
1 Kasu of Shivgangai Nayaks from the Vijaynagar Empire (1570AD)
1 Sawagani of Ala-ud-din Khilji (1296AD)
1 Tanka of Sikander Lodi (1412AD)
1 Falus of Sha al din Muzaffar Shah III of Gujarat Sultanate (967AD)
1 Punchsi of Fath Shah of Kashmir (1483AD)
1 Dam of Akbar (1557 AD)
Soon to receive some more for my birthday, mostly ancient silvers, but one or two medieval silver too
I'd love some coins from Austria, Prussia or Brandenburg.
You should check out AndrejBk, he has tons of videos from these regions and its whereabouts!
@@ClassicalNumismatics Perfect! Thanks. I've been studying medieval coinage for a very long time. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one. I hope he and I can exchange information and see where we differ.
I have a coin like that
👍
I have some ancient coins but I don’t know much about ancient coins, how can I identify them
I have an entire playlist on how to get started. Head over to my channel and take a look, it should cover the basic for you to get started!
I thought the 92,5% silver standard would be originated by the great recoinage of 1279, but through your video l learned that the King Offa`s penny of 785 would be already about that standard of fineness, right?
best
Do you know where you got that tray with blue felt inside in the beginning of the video? Thanks!
You should head over to Luke's channel and ask him! :)
I love your content but your videos are always very low volume compared to others. I always have to turn it down for commercials because I have to turn it up to hear you. Might be worth it to check your audio levels. Cheers!
Thanks for the heads up Matt, I'll look into it!
I was a little disappointed you skipped over the Norman conquest period. I wanted to see your insight on William the Conqueror's pennies.
Im not a medieval coinage expert, and this would make the video 700 hours long, I recommend you follow The Hammered Corner for more specific English coinage content :)
Medieval German coins!
Thats a cool topic I should look at one day. I particularly love the bactreates
I clicked on this because I wanted to see how thin a silver penny was. No luck. I didn't get to see any coins edge on, even for a moment. So I go over to "the hammered corner" to see his videos- still no luck.
Quick and dirty answer: 1mm or less. They were very thin.
Wheres the gold?
Go find it!
