Definition
An old form of currency or a coin of Eastern European origin, particularly from medieval times.
Etymology
From Middle Low German 'esterlinge,' possibly related to eastern regions or the eastern 'mark.' The term was used for high-quality silver coins traded widely in medieval Europe.
Kelly Says
Esterlin coins were the 'Bitcoin' of medieval trade—they were accepted everywhere because they were high-quality silver, and merchants knew they'd hold their value!
