Edward III was King of England from January 1327 until his death in 1377. He is noted for his military success – notably over the French during The Hundred Years’ War, and for restoring royal authority after the disastrous reign of his father, Edward II. Edward III transformed England into one of the most formidable military powers in Europe. His fifty-year reign was one of the longest in English history, and saw vital developments, in particular the evolution of the English Parliament, as well as the ravages of the Black Death. He outlived his eldest son, Edward the Black Prince, and the throne passed to his grandson Richard II. We’ve been putting Edward III Pennies aside, it’s taken many years to accumulate enough to offer you, in either heavily circulated VG or in Fine with more details visible. Each hammered coin is individually struck by hand, therefore no two coins are the same. The photos are representative of what you will receive, but numbers are very limited and it may take us years to be able to offer these as a feature again.
