One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Penny - Henry V (York mint; Class G) ND (1413-1422) from England (United Kingdom, British Overseas Territories and Crown Dependencies) made of Silver weighing 0.45 g is that it was minted during the reign of King Henry V, who was known for his military campaigns in France during the Hundred Years' War. This coin was minted at the York mint, which was one of the major mints in England during the Middle Ages.
