<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Richard280166, post: 2235399, member: 75695&quot;]In a word - History. I love anything to do with the Medieval period especially the Plantagenets. So the interest for me is less about the coin and more about where that coin has been, who owned it and the story it could tell. Living in the UK I&#039;m lucky to have Medieval history on right my doorstep,(I live about a mile from Kendal Castle once owned by Katherine Parr&#039;s family) however, owning a piece of everyday life in the shape of a coin is about as good as it gets.</p><p><br /></p><p>I also like the fact the coin is hammered, created by a strike between two carefully crafted dies - not made in a factory, untouched by human hand - it incompasses, history, design, artistry and then entered people&#039;s life as a vehicle of commerce.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
