 AR Akche (1.2g) AH806 (=1403) from Amir Suleiman ibn Bayazid (1403-1410) of the Ottoman Turks - Mitchiner#1241 Obverse inscription includes "Amir Suleiman ibn Bayazid" Reverse inscription contains "806" Not sure if AH806 is the minting date of the coin or (as so often with the Ottoman Turks) the accession date. Since his whole rule falls within this decade, it does not really matter - we are good to go on at midnight.

 Cash of the rebel Ho Han-Thuong (1403-1407) - http://art-hanoi.com/toda/14.html#34While the attributions by Schjoeth and Mitchiner of Chinese cash have stood the test of time, the attributions of half the Annamese cash have seen a major revision. This coin (Mitchiner#4412) was attributed to a ruler of the Dinh Dynasty, but is now attributed by Barker to above.

Glad to help, the Italian States can be just as confusing as the German States and the French feudal issues. The reference site is the best (nice search function) I have been able to find, unfortunately it is still a work in progress.

Time to leave the 15th century behind and go on to the 140th decade of our current era. It is 1391-1400 time.

Just to show everyone that we are on a roll:  "Thien-Thanh Nguyen-Bao" issued by rebel Su (1391-1392) - Barker#121.x / #26 on http://art-hanoi.com/toda/14.html#34Let me quote: Rebel Su. 1391-1392.This Su was a bonze who rose in arms in the 6th moon of 1391. As for some time he had no royal troops to oppose him, he proclaimed himself king under the name of; THIEN-THANH, and had time and leisure to recruit a numerous army which arrived before the capital and surrounded it. The capital was captured in the 12th moon of 1391, and he reigned in it three days, but was soon afterwards defeated, and being made a prisoner by General HOANG, was put to death by being slowly cut to pieces.

Was hoping to see more coins in that decade, but there should be some action in the 139th decade of our era.
1381-1390 now
