This specimen was lot 791 in Jean Elsen sale 121 (Brussels, June 2014), where it sold for €6,000 (about US$9,610 including buyers' fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"BRABANT, Duché, Les Etats de Brabant (1584-1585), AR écu Robustus, 1584, Anvers. Droit: CONFORTARE ET ESTO ROBVSTVS Guerrier antique debout de face, tête à droite, brandissant son glaive, devant le lion brabançon. Revers: MONAETA DVCATVS BRABANTIAE 1584 Ecu de Brabant couronné, accosté de deux B couronnés. Extrêmement Rare. presque Très Beau. (duchy of Brabant, States of Brabant (1584-85), silver "Robustus" daalder of 1584, Antwerp mint. Obverse: Roman warrior brandishes a sword and shield, Burgundian lion behind. Reverse: crowned arms of Brabant between two crowned "B's". Extremely rare, about very fine.)
Le monnayage d'argent des Etats de Brabant consistait en écus, demi-écus et pièces de 5 sols, appelés "Robustus" d'après la fin de leur légende. Le type choisi pour l'écu et le demi-écu est d'une finesse de gravure remarquable. (The silver coinage of the States of Brabant comprised écus, half écus and five sol pieces, called "Robustus" after the obverse legend. The design chosen for the écu and half écu shows remarkable quality of engraving.)"
This very rare type, issued while Antwerp was besieged by the Spanish, is not mentioned in Davenport.
Reported Mintage: unknown.
Specification: silver, this specimen 26,21 g.
