One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Penny - Henry IV (Heavy coinage; York) ND (1399-1412) from England (United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies) made of Silver weighing 1.01 g is that it was minted during the reign of King Henry IV, who ruled England from 1399 to 1413. This coin was part of the "heavy coinage" issued by the York mint during his reign, which was characterized by the use of higher quality silver and a heavier weight than previous coinage.
