The catalog description&lt;sup&gt;[1]&lt;/sup&gt; noted, &lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;''ARTOIS, Comté, Philippe II (1555-1598), Cu maille (tiers de liard), 1591, Arras. D/ B. cuir. et couronné à d.

Obverse: armored and crowned bust to right; reverse: crowned arms over a cross. Very fine to extremely fine.)&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt; In the French system, a liard was one-fourth of a sou and weighed about 3 grams; the [[Artois 1592 liard|liard]] of Artois was a little heavier so we surmise that it was worth more.<br /> <br /> ''Reported Mintage:'' unknown.<br /> <br /> ''Specification:'' copper, this specimen 1,75 g.<br /> <br /> ''Catalog reference:'' G.H. 235-9; Dewismes 228.<br /> <br /> ''[[Bibliography|Source:]]''<br /> * &lt;sup&gt;[1]&lt;/sup&gt;Elsen, Philippe, et al., ''Vente Publique 133,'' Brussels: Jean Elsen et ses Fils, S.A., 2017.<br /> <br /> ''Link to:''<br /> * [[Namur (1513-16) maille]]<br /> * [[Flanders 1549 korte]]<br /> * [[Artois 1590 liard]]<br /> * [[Tournai 1590 1/5 ecu]]<br /> * [[Artois 1592 liard]]<br /> * [[Coins and currency dated 1591]]<br /> * return to coins of [[Netherlands, Spanish|Spanish Netherlands]]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Selections from Jean Elsen sale 133]][[Category:Coinage of the Dutch provinces]]</div>
