Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ½ Noble coin from Edward III's reign is that it was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in England. The coin was issued during the Pre-Treaty period, which was marked by a series of conflicts between England and France, including the Hundred Years' War. Despite these challenges, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, with its gold content and detailed design making it a valuable and sought-after collector's item.
