Historical Significance

King Charles I ruled England, Scotland and Ireland from 1625 until his execution in 1649, a reign defined by constitutional conflict that culminated in the English Civil War. Throughout this period, silver pennies continued to be struck using traditional hammered methods, where each coin was individually struck between engraved dies with a hammer.

These coins circulated during a time of immense political upheaval, passing through the hands of merchants, soldiers and ordinary citizens as England moved toward one of the most significant turning points in its history.
