The Story of British Coinage

So intertwined are the fortunes of Britain's monarchs and the coins they struck that a story of British coinage cannot help but be a history of the British Isles as well. The author, Peter Seaby, reflects this fascinating link between the history of Britain and the hobby of coin collecting. Collectors will discover the historical significance and background of the coins in their collection; historians at all levels will be aware of the value of coinage in illuminating the political and economic history of the British people. The cover illustration shows a silver testoon of Henry VII; a silver crown of Elizabeth I, and a gold £5 piece of Elizabeth II.
