Description: A groat of the 2nd coinage of Henry VIII, struck at the archiepiscopal mint of Thomas Wolsey. Initial mark, voided cross, both sides.

In minting the groat, Wolsey was exceeding the terms of his monetary privilege and usurping the royal prerogative. The ecclesiastical mints were only permitted to strike denominations of a halfgroat and smaller. Had he not died on his way to London to face more general charges of treason, the minting of these groats would have been an additional charge against him.
