<p>[QUOTE=&quot;AnYangMan, post: 4702290, member: 87271&quot;]I initially missed this topic due to being on holidays, but glad I got tagged [USER=56653]@seth77[/USER] ! Certainly not a common coin and as you point out in your write-up, a very obscure yet historic piece. Condition is always a mayor factor in medieval coins from the Low Countries (and of course in medieval numismatics in general) and obscure pieces such as this one in superb conditions can go through the roof pricewise.</p><p><br /></p><p>The scholarship of Paul Torongo has been some of the finest work on Flemish/Dutch medieval coins of recent times. He is also one of the first to realize that publishing in English is actually beneficial to the field, which is as you undoubtedly have noticed a rather inwards-orientated discipline. Almost all works are published in Dutch! (or French for some of the southern areas)</p><p><br /></p><p>And to keep it legal; another equally obscure lordship (also discussed by Torongo in one of his articles, since it also struck leeuwengroten). A <i>grand denier</i>, after the Flemish half gros of 1331, from Reinoud II (or III?), lord of the obscure Coevorden.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1154771[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
