A very collectable, early hammered silver Penny of King Henry II. A very old coin from Henry the Second, the first Plantagenet King of England. This coin is of the "Short cross" type, and was struck by the moneyer named "Raul" at the London mint between the years 1180-1189. In this period, moneyers had to have their name on the coin to assure quality control. Any coins found to be substandard would result in severe consequences for the moneyer, even going so far as hanging! This coin in around fine with even tone and clear legend, the face a little blundered but does not deter from a collectable coin.
