About: History of the English penny (c. 600 – 1066)

An Entity of Type: Thing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The history of the English penny can be traced back to the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms of the 7th century: to the small, thick silver coins known to contemporaries as pæningas or denarii, though now often referred to as sceattas by numismatists. Broader, thinner pennies inscribed with the name of the king were introduced to Southern England in the middle of the 8th century. Coins of this format remained the foundation of the English currency until the 14th century.

  • La historia del penique inglés (c. 600 - 1066) se remonta a los reinos anglosajones del siglo VII: a las pequeñas y gruesas monedas de plata conocidas por los contemporáneos como pæningas o denarii, aunque ahora los numismáticos suelen denominarlas Sceats. A mediados del siglo VIII se introdujeron en el sur de Inglaterra monedas más anchas y finas con el nombre del rey. Las monedas de este formato siguieron siendo la base de la moneda inglesa hasta el siglo XIV. (es)
