Hammered Short Cross Coins of King John For Sale - reigned 1199-1216

Hammered short cross coins from the reign of King John. John was the youngest son of Henry II, and was born in Oxford in about 1166 or 1167. His was a turbulent reign with war against France and a civil war against the Barons in 1215. At Runnymede in 1215 John accepted the baronial terms embodied in the world famous Magna Carta, which limited royal power, ensured feudal rights and restated English law.
