House of Stuart Coins For Sale
|  Charles I Silver coins Charles I was born in 1600, the second son of James I and Anne of Denmark. After several unsuccessful attempts at arranging a marriage, Charles married the 15 year-old daughter of France's King Henry IV, Henrietta Maria. After much civil unrest, Charles raised his standard against Parliamentary forces at Nottingham in 1642. Religious and economic issues added to the differences between the supporters of the monarchy (Cavaliers) and the supporters of Parliament (Roundheads). Charles I was forced to surrender to Scottish forces, was handed over to Oliver Cromwell, and was executed for treason in 1649.
