Comment
Thibaut II, son of Ferri III, was Lord of Neufchâteau from 1281 to his coronation as Duke of Lorraine in 1303, and died in 1312.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Denier coin from the Lordship of Neufchateau is that it features a unique design element - a small cross pattée (a type of cross with narrow arms and a rounded end) on the reverse side, which was a distinctive feature of coins from this region during that time period.
