Comment
This coin holds the title of Count of Richmond, really given to his brother John by the King of England.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Arthur II ND (1305-1312) from Duchy of Brittany (French States) made of Billon weighing 0.84 g is that it features a unique design, with the obverse side bearing the image of a crowned king, likely Arthur II, while the reverse side features a cross fleury, which was a common symbol used by the Duchy of Brittany during that time period.
