Or maybe to be more specific did normal common people have gold coins? It's one thing for merchants and kings to have access to coins that would be like a 10,000 dollar bill or something but would a normal peasant be able to go to a baker and trade 2 gold coins for a loaf of bread or something? In Feudal systems did most people even really deal with money? It's a pretty common staple in lots of fantasy games roughly based on medieval Europe that you can generally paid for any random hero work for a purse of gold coins or something.
The mainstay of the early medieval English economy wasn't gold, but rather the silver penny. Gold coins did exist, but they were largely symbolic propaganda pieces like the gold mancus of Ceolwulf, one of only eight extant gold coins from prior to 1250. The mancus was part of a wider issue but one that was most likely given as a token of patronage to leading nobles and bishops in Ceolwulf's Mercia. On the other hand, English pennies were famed across Europe for the consistency of their silver content and their reliability. Coinage production was tightly regulated, and minting was regularly controlled to make sure the value of coinage remained consistent.
The day-to-day economy of early medieval England was actually monetised to a fairly extensive degree (see Keynes, Kings, Currency and Alliances and Naismith, Money and Power in Anglo-Saxon England); while barter was certainly still used to some extent, pennies were actively used for daily transactions. Many issues of coin were actually specifically designed so that they could be split into halfpennies and farthings to be used in transactions of a lesser value. The Grately law codes of Æthelstan from the 920s actually set a number of prices for livestock, although of course these are normative rather than necessarily actual values.
The numismatic evidence of coin finds across the country seen through databases like the Portable Antiquities Scheme and the Syllogue of English Medieval Coins also posits regular coin usage; while the majority of finds are from major hoards, there's a broad spread of single finds or 2-3 coin hoards (i.e. coins that could be expected to have been dropped accidentally, lost from a pocket or a dropped purse) across the country, and clustered around known early medieval settlements, that suggests people were carrying - and losing - coins as a matter of course.
E: As of Æthelstan's London (V) codex, a cow is valued at 20d, a pig at 10d and a sheep at 1 shilling (12d). An ox is valued at a mancus (approx. 120d), and a horse at also 10 shillings (120d).
