Albert Pillar of the Community United States 1915 Posts	Posted 06/07/2016 10:42 am I tried to find this coin too by searching over 390 pages of likely candidates, but then stopped to do other work. Now I return to Roberts this morning to pick up and find it just on the next page. All too late anyway since others already nailed it. I found "Monogram" of Hainault on page 392/393. It's in a section called Northern Types- Monograms or Symbols: Silver Coins of Medieval France. Could be Roberts 7505 or other very similar. Sorry for the delay but there's rib cooking and wallpaper stripping mixed in with coin hunting. Report this Post to the Staff
