Jean Elsen sale 149, lot 738

This specimen was lot 738 in Jean Elsen sale 149 (Brussels, December 2021), where it sold for €60 (about US$81 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,

"BRABANT, Duché, Philippe le Beau (1482-1506), AR double patard, 1500, Anvers. D/ Ecu couronné d'Autriche-Bourgogne. R/ Croix fleuronnée, un lion en coeur. Double frappe. presque Très Beau. (duchy of Brabant, Philip the Fair, 1482-1506, silver double patard of 1500, Antwerp mint. Obverse: crowned arms of Austria and Burgundy, reverse: floriate cross with a lion at the center. Double struck, about Very Fine.)"

At this time, the Hapsburgs were consolidating their hold on the Low Countries, a process that would not be completed until emperor Charles V obtained the holdings of the bishop of Utrecht in the 1520's. Unfortunately, at the same time, Protestantism was spreading in the Netherlands, ripping apart the Hapsburgs' hoped-for unity. This type was struck at Namur 1499-1503, Antwerp 1499-1506 (shown here) and at Maastricht 1500-06. The reverse legend reads, "OMNIS+SPIRITVS+LAVDET+DOMINV+ANO+D 1500". The Namur and Maastricht products have different reverse legends.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Specification: 3.06 g, 0.639 fine silver, 28.5 mm diameter, this specimen 2,82 g.

Catalog reference: G.H. 119-1; W. 609; V.H. 151; Levinson II-153b.
