Latin and Roman numerals were still in common use in the Tudor period. The son of Henry VIII, king Edward VI was the first monarch to put the date in Arabic numerals on his coins in 1551, although the values were still in Roman numerals. The first books printed in English also occured during his reign. It is likely that Henry VIIIs dissolution of the monasteries and the creation of the Church of England had a huge impact on the increasing popularity and usage of written English and Arabic numerals and an aversion to using Latin and Roman numerals with their link to Rome and Catholicism.
