Poey d'Avant wrongly attributed this coin to Elias VI (1245-1261).
Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Denier - Elias VII ND (1295-1311) from County of Périgord (French States) made of Billon is that it features a unique design element - a small cross pattée (a cross with arms that are narrow at the center and broaden towards the ends) on the reverse side, which was a distinctive feature of coins minted during the reign of Elias VII. This design element was used to signify the coin's connection to the County of Périgord and its ruler, Elias VII, who was a powerful noble during the time.
