1707 1^ed English Money Chronicon Preciosum Economics Finance Numismatics Coins

William Fleetwood was a 17^th-century English bishop who is most remembered for his economic treaty ‘Chronicon Preciosum’. This work was written out of curiosity of financial questions that he had pondered – the value of money in years past, how much his money could purchase in the 15^th-century, changing in prices of goods, and consumer purchasing power. This work was referenced in many of Fleetwood’s sermons in which he preached on financial wellness and economics and the role of money in religion.
