Download or read book Coins of England and the United Kingdom (2022) written by Emma Howard and published by Spink Books. This book was released on 2022-02-28 with total page 648 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic reference work for British coins is still the only catalog to feature every major coin type from Celtic to the Decimal coinage of Queen Elizabeth II, arranged in chronological order and divided into metals under each reign, then into coinages, denominations and varieties. All decimal coinage since 1968 is listed in a separate volume, available as an independent publication. The catalog includes up-to-date values for every coin, a beginner’s guide to coin collecting, numismatic terms explained and historical information about each British coin, from our earliest (Celtic) coins, Roman, Anglo-Saxon and Norman coins, the coins of the Plantagenet Kings, the Houses of Lancaster and York, the Tudors and Stuarts, to the more modern Milled coinage, minted for the first time in 1561 during the reign of Elizabeth I. From the earliest of times, coins have been used by states or monarchs to communicate with people; Coins of England and the United Kingdom is therefore not only a reference book for collectors, but a fascinating snapshot of British history, illuminating its economics, technology, art, politics and religion. As always, the content has been updated and improved throughout by the editors, with numerous new images and revisions of key sections.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the British Coinage For those who wish to know something of the origin and history of our coined money it is hoped that the following story will serve as a brief introduction to a most interesting subject. As it may appear strange that Ireland has not been allotted a more prominent position in these pages, I would point out, in the first place, that preference has been given to the main coinages, while the branches have necessarily been treated very cursorily. As Ireland prac tically never coined any money for herself, the anglo-irish series though by no means a small matter, comes under the latter head and has been dealt with accordingly. In the second place, and this is the more potent reason, the history of the anglo-irish coinage is at present in a state of confusion from which it is almost impossible to construct a narrative suitable to a book of the present nature. I hope this ex planation will be accepted by my Irish readers. In common with other students of English and Scottish numismatics I have to acknowledge great indebtedness to the works of Hawkins, Kenyon, Evans, Burns, cochran-patrick, and other authorities.

Download or read book When Britain Went Decimal written by Mark Stocker and published by . This book was released on 2021-02 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United Kingdom was the last major nation-state in the world to adopt decimal currency, 50 years ago in 1971. Why was it so slow to do so? What changed politicians' and peoples' minds about it in the 1960s? Were Britain's plans to join the EEC influential? What was the impact of South Africa, Australia and New Zealand going decimal several years earlier? Or did it simply happen because of common sense, with a decimal system so much easier to learn and use than pounds, shillings and pence?The route to find the right designs was a complex one, with interfering politicians, struggling artists, and at one stage an angry Duke of Edinburgh! It took over five years to get there, and then there was the seven-sided 50 pence - a design classic we would say today, but what did the media and public think of it when it was launched in 1969?When Britain Went Decimal takes readers through the changeover leading to D-Day (decimalisation day), and beyond: how smooth and successful was the process? Did newspapers secretly hope it would fail? While decimalisation might have seemed right at the time, did it lead to inflation, as many people believe today?Entertainingly written and beautifully illustrated, this first book on decimalisation since 1973 attempts to answer all these questions and more, looking as much at the design - indeed the 'art' behind the new coinage - as at social, economic and political history.
