    Surprisingly cheap, of course, about $25 to $50 each. I have a dozen or so that I bought over the years in preparation for an article that will appear in The Celator. I never thought much of medieval coins, but I got into the topic via the great medieval fairs. Since then, I learned to appreciate the currency for what it is.

    Poey d'Avant 5951
    Henry II Troyes Mint (1180-1197). Obv: Center Cross with annulets. HENRI COMES. Rev: Central monogram. TRECAS CIVITAS. 0.89 g. Author’s collection. Ex: Calgary Coins.
