He was the last king of the House of York and the last of the Plantagenet dynasty. His defeat and death at the Battle of Bosworth Field, the last decisive battle of the Wars of the Roses, marked the end of the Middle Ages in England.Richard III’s coinage followed the pattern of previous reigns with the portrait remaining stylised, though this increasingly became more distinctive. His coinage can be divided into three types according to the mintmark. Type 1, the sun and rose coinage, lasted 24 days to 20th July 1483. Type 2, the boar’s head coinage, was issued until June 1484. Type 3, the sun and rose coinage, was struck until the end of Richard III’s reign.
