Commentary
Édouard entreprit une grande réforme monétaire en 1279 en créant le gros (groat) qui vaut 4 pennies. Pour le monnayage d'Édouard Ier nous avons deux périodes bien différentes. Le monnayage du roi commence par les deniers à la croix longue (Long Cross Coinage) (1272-1279) qui continuent le monnayage de son père, Henri III. Édouard Ier créa un système monétaire complet avec : groat (gros), penny, halfpenny, farthing.

The king's coinage began with the Long Cross Coinage (1272-1279), which continued the coinage of his father, Henry III. Edward I created a complete monetary system with the groat, penny, halfpenny, and farthing.
