On medieval coins the bust of the king was intended to represent the king, but was not a portrait. So the bust on this coin is intended to represent "the king," but was not intended to be taken as a likness of Edward I. The same portrait was used from 1279 until about 1500.

Some kings tend to take on immortal qualities, don't they?
"Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you." -Luke 11:9
"Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD: And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might." -Deut. 6:4-5
"For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; He will save us." -Isaiah 33:22

The most difficult seem to be the Edward II, for common coins they aren't that easy to find. One from every mint would be a cool little collection.

Thank you, Jester.
