Money could be as essential to everyday life in medieval England as
it is today, but who made the coinage, how was it used and why is
it important? This definitive study charts the development of coin
production from the small workshops of Anglo-Saxon and Norman
England to the centralised factory mints of the late Middle Ages,
the largest being in the Tower of London. Martin Allen investigates
the working lives of the people employed in the mints in
unprecedented detail and places the mints in the context of
medieval England's commerce and government, showing the king's
vital interest in the production of coinage, the maintenance of its
quality and his mint revenue. This unique source of reference also
offers the first full history of the official exchanges in the City
of London regulating foreign exchange and an in-depth analysis of
the changing size and composition of medieval England's coinage.
