1422 SILVER PENNY HENRY VI

A significant penny from the opening year of Henry VI's reign, 1422. This coin marks the beginning of one of England's longest and most consequential monarchies, issued during the early Lancastrian period. Henry VI pennies represent an important collecting focus within medieval English numismatics, particularly those from the initial coinage period. The 1422 date places this specimen at a pivotal moment in 15th-century monetary history, coinciding with Henry's accession as an infant and the regency period that followed. Surviving examples in identifiable condition remain relatively scarce. This piece appeals to collectors specialising in Lancastrian coinage, medieval penny studies, and those researching the monetary systems of the Wars of the Roses era. An authentic window into early 15th-century English commerce and royal authority.
