Description: | Medieval copper alloy Jetton issued at Tournai, V / cross potent with flowers alternating with C's springing into quarters from inner circle, c.1400-1510 AD.The jetton is a variant of Barnard no.79 (1916:112) and Mitchiner no.734 (1988:240), the latter suggests a date around 1500 for the type (ibid: 236). This example has same obverse and legends as the published type but the reverse is a variant with two of the quatrefoils replaced with C's. This reverse variant is not listed in Barnard (ibid), Mitchiner (ibid) or Mernick and Algar (2001).
