House of Stuart
During the Stuart period one of the biggest changes was made in the history of British coinage - the change from hand to machine made coins. In the earlier Stuart period before the English Civil War most of the coins were hand produced and the sheer variety of designs produced during this period of unrest at numerous mints is a large collecting area in it's own right. The milled coins after 1662 form the 'blueprint' of the coinage for the next 100 years or so. The early milled coinage (particularly of Charles II) is very difficult to find in the top grades.
