<p>[QUOTE="Terry Nield, post: 5258902, member: 116719"]I have attached a specimen by Philippe IV of France. The Gros Tournois coin was one of the most widely copied coin of the Middle Ages--first introduced by Louis IX of France. This coin gave rise to the names Groat and Groschen. My coin is of interest because the design incorporates a 'Lis' on the end of the 'L' in PHILIPPVS (obv.). Some of these coins can still purchased from €100-€150 range and there are many minor die varieties within this series. As for preferences, I'll leave that decision for individual collectors to make for themselves.[ATTACH=full]1219607[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
