Elizabeth I Crowned (1559) | This Week in British History
In this Midweek History Extra, we go back to January 1559, when Elizabeth I was crowned Queen of England at Westminster Abbey, marking the beginning of the Elizabethan Age.
In this short, audio focused episode, Katie explores how Elizabeth became queen, why her coronation mattered, and how this moment shaped religion, power, and politics in Tudor England. We also look at what this period leaves behind in the ground today, including Elizabethan hammered silver coins and everyday Tudor objects still being found by detectorists across Britain.
You will also learn why Elizabeth I’s portrait is so often worn smooth on coins, how to identify and date Elizabethan hammered silver when the face has gone, and what that wear tells us about trade, circulation, and daily life in the late 16th century.
Perfect for fans of British history, Tudor England, archaeology, metal detecting, and historical finds.
Midweek History Extra is a short midweek episode from the Detecting History Podcast, exploring key moments from British history and how they connect to the objects still being found today.
