EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the obverse side of a penny from the reign of William I, also known as William the Conqueror. Crafted in silver during the 11th century, this coin is a remarkable piece of history that can be found at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, UK. The image captures a profile portrait of King William I wearing his regal crown. The intricate details on this small piece of currency highlight the exceptional craftsmanship and metalwork that went into its creation. As one gazes upon this ancient artifact, they are transported back to a time when coins were not only used for transactions but also served as symbols of power and authority. It is fascinating to think about how this penny was produced in Hastings under King William's rule. Its denomination and ruler's portrait reflect both Norman influence and English heritage. This coin serves as a testament to William's conquests and his position as Duke of Normandy. As we admire this photograph, we are reminded of the significance coins hold in our understanding of history. They provide us with glimpses into past civilizations, their leaders, and their economic systems. This particular image invites us to appreciate the artistry behind these everyday objects while contemplating their historical context within society.
