[QUOTE="Nap, post: 3068843, member: 73099"]If you are considering figures of great accommplishment, then Offa of Mercia, Alfred the Great, Aethelstan the Glorious, William I, Henry II, Richard I the Lionheart, Edward I Longshanks, Henry V, and Elizabeth are obvious targets. If you are considering figures that are legendary for maybe the wrong reasons, then Aethelred II the Unready, Edward the Confessor, Stephen of Blois (and maybe Matilda), John Lackland, Richard III, Bloody Mary I, and Charles I Stuart. If you consider periods, then consider examples of Wessex, pre-conquest England, Norman conquest, Anarchy, Angevins, Plantagenets, Lancastrians, Yorkists, Tudors, Stuarts, and Commonwealth. If you wants classic portraits, consider Offa's heavy portrait coinage, Alfred the Great's Londonia or cross with losenges, Aethelred II's rooster-combe long cross, Harold II Godwinson's PAX, Henry VIII's testoon, Edward VI's fine style shilling, Elizabeth I crown or halfcrown. Personally, I too would want them all.[/QUOTE]
