Comment

In the Philippe IV series, it resembles the petit royal d'or assis and was struck in 1305, almost at the same time as the mantelet. In the texts, it is called "Florenus regine" or "Florin à la Royne" or "Florin des Chétifs". It was demonetized in 1310.Automatically translated

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Florin d'or à la reine - Philippe IV ND (1305) coin is that it was minted during the reign of King Philip IV of France, also known as Philip the Fair, who ruled from 1285 to 1314. This coin was part of a new currency system introduced by Philip IV in 1305, which replaced the old denier currency with a new gold coin called the écu. The Florin d'or à la reine was a smaller denomination of the écu, and it was minted in several French cities, including Paris, Rouen, and Lyon.
