Book Description: 
This historic reference work for British coins is still the only catalogue to feature every major coin type from Celtic to the Decimal coinage of King Charles III, arranged in chronological order and divided into metals under each reign, then into coinages, denominations and varieties. This Pre-Decimal volume lists all coinage up to decimalisation, with decimal coinage since 1968 is listed in a separate volume, available as an independent publication. The catalogue includes up-to-date values for every coin, a beginner’s guide to coin collecting, numismatic terms explained and historical information about each British coin, from our earliest (Celtic) coins, Roman, Anglo-Saxon and Norman coins, the coins of the Plantagenet Kings, the Houses of Lancaster and York, the Tudors and Stuarts, to the more modern Milled coinage, minted for the first time in 1561 during the reign of Elizabeth I. From the earliest of times, coins have been used by states or monarchs to communicate with people; Coins of England is therefore not only a reference book for collectors, but a fascinating snapshot of British history, illuminating its economics, technology, art, politics and religion. Over 3,000 price changes have been made in this edition to reflect market activity during the past year, fully updated under the new ownership of Sovereign Rarities.
