This coinage possibly started around 1201/3 and ended in 1216 with this type (Class J). According to M. Philips - The Roupen Hoard of Helmet Pennies of Antioch, The Numismatic Chronicle Vl. 165 (2005), pp. 249-276 (p. 276) this type was being minted when Roupen&#039;s coup succeeded in capturing Antioch in 1216. So a terminus ante quem for Class J (Ash) should be 1216.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
