<p>[QUOTE=&quot;seth77, post: 8191550, member: 56653&quot;]Well, as a matter of fact the later immobilizations are also from the famous Crusader &#039;nostra moneta&#039; coinages -- coins taken by the crusaders towards the Holy Land in the First Crusade. So if one does not have access to research on the coinage of Poitou, there is another shot to be taken towards the research done on Crusader material, especially hoards. So in this case we have roughly speaking -- Fecamp (Francoise Dumas-Dubourg - Le tresor de Fecamp...) and the later Outremer hoards - Near East 2000 (I &amp; W Schulze, Bompaire, et al - A coin hoard from the First Crusade...) and the ones noted by Metcalf (Some hoards and stray finds...) etc. as material. Teboulbi, Bompaire et al (Les monnayages d&#039;Alphonse de Poitiers...) gives the bottom tail-end of the series at 400-430/1000 for the coinage of Richard for instance, but for the period of ca. 1000 to 1100 (so after Fecamp but before the &#039;nostra moneta&#039; of the crusaders) I don&#039;t really know if there is research marking the evolution of billon quality.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
