Edward I, Penny (London Mint) Very Good

In the reign of King Edward I, 1272-1307, the largest denomination in circulation was the Silver Penny. They were of such good silver quality that they were illegally exported and melted down. You have a facing portrait of the King on the obverse and a cross on the reverse. Here we present examples of the Edward I Silver Penny from the London Mint in Very good condition. These were the largest denomination struck over 700 years ago.
