@t360, thanks for the explanation on Besancon. This tradition echoes Aachen's use of that other Charles on their coins, though the reason is probably different. @giljan, quite some nice thalers you have!

Poland 1618 ort, Gdansk mint, type with flat collar (it's too bad a previous owner needed to clean a coin that was already in such nice condition). Sigismund wears a ruffled lace collar on this type from its introduction in 1609 to 1615. Then from 1616 to 1621 he wears a flat collar, even while coins from the Krakow mint (3 kreuzer, trojak) still show him in a lace collar. Maybe Gdansk was having some trading issues with the country providing lace collars?
