A double Briquet from the Bruges mint. Hope to
upgrade this one soon.

 

A Gros also from Bruges.

 

The reference number for this should read " II-36 ".
Per Bob's book the mint is uncertain.

 

A Patard from the Hasselt mint. According to Bob's book, I believe
I have shown all 6 coins that he has listed in his book for Region II- The Southern Netherlands. The date is located in the lower right quadrant
(3-6 o'clock) of the left image, LXXVIII.

 

This one from the Dordecht mint.

 

One of my favorites from Utrecht. this from the mint
Wijk-bij-Duurstede.

 

Two varieties for this coin, this with medieval slanting "7 ". From the
Lienz mint.

 

The second variety, this with modern, upright "7".
Also from the Lienz mint.

 

You just keep adding such great coins. I can hardly believe so many exist and I can't recall ever seeing one anywhere. I am still looking for a 99 with a hole in it. I did turn one down a few years ago, right after I bought the one I have. Just bad timing, I thought I had enough of them (1), I was wrong and I now regret it. Here is another fun one for your observation.

 

A half Ortug with the bust of the king (right image).
From the Stockholm mint.

 

A half Ortug with a large "S". The right image should be
rotated 90% clockwise. Also from the Stockholm mint.

 

Accept for when @ycon shared his/her pic of their Levinson VII-7
and @panzerman 1497 Ducat and his 1499 Ducat, I thought there
would be more posts from other collectors. I can only conclude that
they have not seen this thread or there are VERY few collectors with
coins that fit this thread. I'm not disappointed just surprised.

 

That 1804 sure could tell some stories. Made into a cog wheel
by an enterprising laborer. Then plugged later by a dealer or
collector. These are my thoughts, I'm sure they could be augmented.
Thanks for sharing. Anymore?

 

I would say you probably have the best collection of European early dated coinage, that is main reason why others are not participating in your thread. But....I am sure that everyone is admiring your coin posts. Personally I have coins spanning over 26 centuries, but I am rather weak in 1400-1500 Christian dated coins. But, I will try harder to get them in future. I hope to get a AV Demi Noble 1488 from Flanders.
Here is one from Mainz
AV Goldgulden 1493 Mainz Mint
Archbishop Berthold Von Henneberg 1484-1504

 

@panzerman, Thank you for the kind words. Bob Levinson's collection
is far and away the finest private collection of these coins, about 6x larger
and deeper than mine. He has dozens of gold coins and an equal amount
of R-5 and R-6 pieces. Your 1493 Mainz Goldgulden is spectacular. Maybe
one day for me. It's reference number in Bob's book is I-302.

 

Nice clean piece. From the Freiberg mint.

 

That is a beauty.

 

From the Zwickau mint. The spitzgroschen from 1475 1477 are relatively
easy to find with only a couple of tough ones.

 

A double Briquet from the Antwerp mint.
