Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Brûlé - John of Gaveren ND (1457-1480) coin from the Lordship of Elsloo (Dutch States) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the House of Gaveren, which was the noble family that ruled the region at the time. This shield is located on the reverse side of the coin, surrounded by the inscription "S. Johannis de Gaveren" (Saint John of Gaveren). This design element sets the coin apart from other coins of the same era and region, and makes it a distinctive and interesting piece for collectors.
