Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Liard - Henry (6th A type) 1614 coin from the Principality of Sedan (French States) is that it features a unique design element - a small shield with the coat of arms of the Principality of Sedan, which was a small independent state within the Holy Roman Empire. This shield is located on the reverse side of the coin, beneath the main image of Henry IV, King of France. This design element sets the coin apart from other coins of the same era and denomination, and highlights the coin's connection to the Principality of Sedan.
