Comment
House of Lancaster (1399-1461), Henry IV (1399-1413), Heavy coinage (1399-1412), London mint.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the ¼ Noble - Henry IV (Heavy coinage; London) ND (1399-1412) coin is that it was minted during a time of great economic and political change in England. The coin was issued during the reign of King Henry IV, who came to power after deposing his cousin, Richard II. Henry IV's reign was marked by struggles with the House of Commons and the nobility, as well as the impact of the Black Death, which had a significant impact on the economy and society. Despite these challenges, the coinage of this period, including the ¼ Noble, remained a symbol of the power and prestige of the English monarchy.
