A quarter noble was a coin minted during the Tudor era in England, introduced by Henry VII in 1489. It was worth 1/4 of a gold noble, which was a standard coin at the time. The quarter noble was made of gold and weighed approximately 1.75 grams. It had a diameter of 16mm and featured a portrait of the monarch on the obverse and the coat of arms on the reverse. The coin was used as a means of payment and also as a way for the monarch to show their wealth and power. The quarter noble was discontinued during the reign of Elizabeth I in the 1570s, as it was replaced by the crown and half-crown, which were larger denomination coins. Today, quarter nobles are highly sought after by collectors due to their scarcity and historical significance.
