The Edward VI half-sov is my clear favorite here. But I also like the Uri ducat, with the bull and St. Martin. (I confess I had to look up Uri. Hadn’t heard of it before.) As usual, I would welcome ANY of those in my collection.
Had to add #11 Burgundy/ Flanders/ Duchy AV Lion d'or D Brugges Mint Philippe le Bon 1419-67 Historical note: He captured Jeanne D'Arc then handed her over to the English. They then seeking revenge for her victories vs English/ esp. at Orleans, tried her for witchcraft. She was found guilty and burned alive on the stake.
I collect mainly British coins, so the Edward VI coin would fit best in my collection. The Charles I is good too, though not as attractive. I have to say though that the Uri bull coin is the most handsome!
