1509 Peerdeken of Snaphaan No date, but introduced in 1509 Ruler: Charles II, Duke of Guelders (also called Charles of Egmong (1492-1538) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charl..._of_GueldersThe image shows the duke with a raised sword in armor on horseback. That looks like a brigand, formerly called "Snaphaan" (flintlock). Hence the name of the currency. Officially, it is a six 'stuiver' piece but no uses that name, of course, with such a beautiful name.

Just how early are the first dated coins (Gregorian calendar)? I know England didn't start dating coins until 1547, but what about the rest of Europe?

This was actually the first thread I ever looked at on CCF. Not really. I will lock the first edition and point it here when this one gets to 1495 (or whatever year they meet). It will stay open and active for people to post as the coins come. |
