Product description

William 1st of England, William the Bastard, better known as William the Conqueror, was a Norman king. Already at a young age, William was threatened by enemy Norman rulers who coveted his inherited land and possessions. After many conflicts, his hold on the former Viking kingdom of Normandy was secured in 1060. William now focused on England.

After Edward the Confessor's death, William claimed English kingship for himself. In 1066 he led a very well-prepared expedition over the channel and defeated the Anglo-Saxon king Harold II of England.

In the years after Hastings, William got hold of England. He ordered wooden fortifications to be constructed, which were later immortalised in stone structures, and he commanded the making of an enormous inventarisation also known as the Domesday Book. William was the founder of the medieval English royal house.

The coin is based on original pennies that were minted during his reign. It is crafted from leadless pewter.
