Comment
De Witte says that 85.154 coins have been minted in Antwerp.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the regency of Philip the Handsome, who was the son of King Maximilian I and Mary of Burgundy. Philip was known for his diplomatic and political skills, and he played a significant role in the politics of the Holy Roman Empire during his lifetime. Despite being made of a relatively low-value material, the coin still holds historical significance and is a valuable addition to any collection of ancient coins.
