Comment
Sometimes dated 1389 - 1404, but clearly a continuation of the type struck previously under William V, and was replaced in the emission of 1381 with the new groot.Interesting fact
The 1 Groat coin from County of Holland (Dutch States) featuring Albert of Bavaria (Quadrilobe) has a unique design element - it has a quadrilobe shape, which means it has four lobes or crescent-shaped sections. This distinctive shape was used to differentiate the coin from other circulating coins and to make it easily recognizable.
