This specimen was lot 1699 in Jean Elsen sale 145 (Brussels, September 2020), where it sold for €60 (about US$86 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"TOURNAI, Seigneurie, Philippe II (1555-1598), AR double patard, 1593. D/ Croix cantonnée de deux lions et deux couronnes, un lion en coeur. R/ Ecu couronné dans un polylobe. Très Beau. (lordship of Tournai, Philip II, 1555-98, silver double patard of 1593. Obverse: cross cantonned with two lions and two crowns, a lion at the center; reverse: crowned arms in a polylobe. Very Fine.)"
This seems to be a very late issue of a denomination made in large quantities a century prior, during the reign of the Burgundian duke Charles the Rash. Numista lists it for 1593-95.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
Specification: 3.3 g, 0.333 fine silver, 26 mm diameter, this specimen 3,23 g.
Catalog reference: G.H. 219-14; Hoc 315; V.H. 313.
