Comment

This coin of Henry VI Plantagenet was struck in the early years of his reign, between 1422 and 1427 on a perfectly centred flan, since the outer border of dots can be seen in its entirety, as well as the entire titulary. The striking weakness has left some visible traces, notably on the boat, but the details of the grenetis on the ropes, show that the coin is almost uncirculated as they are in a superb state. The king is also very well detailed, and the shield with his arms is excellently engraved. The reverse, also affected by the striking weakness, shows a superb cross, also very detailed, with the tips of the arms of the cross and the leopards between them.
