Description: | Copper alloy, circular, uniface coin weight. This weight is for a Gros Tournois, a royal French coin used in the later 13th century and for most of the 14th century. The design shows a stylised temple of St. Martin, the saint of Tours. These tournois were officially copied by many other issuing authorities in the Low Countries and in the territory of present-day Germany. The only uncertainty here seems
to be the legend, which does not appear to be the standard TVRONVS CIVIS but rather L DENER [ ]. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 1275
