Publisher's Synopsis
This guide is only intended to introduce the voided long cross coinage to new collectors and beginners generally to assist in classifying these coins. The English voided long- cross coins are so-named from the double-limbed or 'voided' cross on the reverses which extends to the outer edge of the coins, This serves to distinguish them from the earlier short-cross which they replaced and from the later (plain) long-cross coins of Edward I (from 1279) and thereafter.
