<p>[QUOTE="talerman, post: 2984286, member: 89314"]As Seth 77 (who are the other 76 ? ) says, the denier tournois started as a local coinage before Philip II Augustus turned it into a royal coinage around 1205. The first deniers tournois were struck by the St. Martin de Tours (hence the name) Abbey in the 9th century. King Charles the Simple (898-923) confirmed the abbey's right to strike its own types of coins. Philip II Augustus took over the abbey's mint in 1204-5. He later moved it from the abbey into the city of Tours.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
