1216 SILVER PENNY HENRY III

A striking example of early English coinage, this silver penny dates to the reign of Henry III (1216-1272). Minted during a transformative period in British monetary history, this coin features the characteristic long cross design that became standard during this era, helping to prevent clipping of the coin's edges.

Henry III's pennies are highly sought by numismatists and collectors for their historical significance and relative scarcity. Each coin tells the story of 13th-century England, bearing the marks of age and circulation that authenticate its genuine provenance.

Ideal for serious collectors, history enthusiasts, and those building a comprehensive collection of medieval English coinage. A tangible connection to over 800 years of British heritage.
