<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sylvester, post: 70181, member: 708&quot;]I don&#039;t have an Æthelred II yet. More Æthelred II coins are found in Denmark than in England despite the fact that Æthelred was the king of England only (the king of Denmark being Sweyn Forkbeard at this time, who incidentally was also the king of England very briefy). The reason for the proliferation of Anglo-Saxon coins in Denmark is because of the Danegeld, which was a tax charged to the English by the Danes. If the English paid it the Danes didn&#039;t invade for a while (in theory).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
