Description: ENGLAND'S STRIKING HISTORY - BRIEF HISTORY OF ENGLAND AND IT'S SILVER HAMMERED COINAGE - 2018 Edition COIN PUBLICATIONS UK. - Excellent publication with great historical information - 150 Pages. This book lightheartedly meanders its way from Anglo-Saxon King Eadgar in 959AD (the first King of all England) right through the various dynasties, up to the last hammered coins struck in about 1663 under Charles II. It outlines the important historical events and has little biographies of each monarch. It also describes in detail, what was going on with the coinage at the time, the economy/world events and by way of descriptive text and great drawings of almost every hammered silver coin type, it points out how novices can correctly attribute the coins to the right reign and denomination. It’s like 2 books in one really – Great general historical info covering over 700 years, written in a friendly informative way, and a wonderful introduction to the silver hand struck coinage of England during that period. An excellent book for metal detectorists too. As the editor of this book I thoroughly enjoyed reading it as I was going through, the style is not at all stuffy like some history books can be. Even if you’re not really into history it really is easy to read and understand. Others that were involved with this project enjoyed it too, in fact, the proof-reader found it so interesting that he charged less to proof it! Features: Hundreds of accurate line drawings of most coin types. A potted guide to English history over 700 years. Instructions on how to clean freshly dug Hammered Coins.
