EDWARD V. (1483.)

There are some gold and silver coins exactly similar to those of Edward

IV., but bearing as mint marks a boar’s head, a rose-en-soleil, or

a rose-en-soleil on one side and boar’s head on the other, that are

conjectured to have been issued by this youthful king by authority and

order of his uncle the “Protector,” afterwards Richard III., whose

badges they bear. They are extremely rare.
