Chalon #247 Interesting fact
The 2 Liards coin from Spanish Netherlands (County of Namur, Belgian States) made of Copper weighing 7.65g was minted during the reign of King Philip V of Spain, who ruled from 1700 to 1746. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign, which were designed to standardize the currency across the Spanish Netherlands. The coin features an image of the king on one side and the coat of arms of the County of Namur on the other. It's interesting to note that the County of Namur was a region that was part of the Spanish Netherlands at the time, and this coin was used as a form of currency in that region.
