Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Maille Blanche - Edward II (Type 2) ND (1307-1327) coin from Duchy of Aquitaine (French States) is that it features a unique design element - a small cross pattée (a type of cross with arms that are narrow at the center and broader at the ends) on the reverse side, which was a distinctive feature of the coinage of Edward II. This cross pattée was not present on all coins of this type, making it a notable variation among the Maille Blanche coins.
