very nice !

just a few miles the other direction from Nieuwpoort (towards the Netherlands) Oostende again, the long siege from 1601-1604

here a map of the situation when it was not clear who would win
two jetons of different qualities, the weak points on one are better on the other
the obverse shows the well known story of the fox and the raven
