Comments
(en)
Coin of the highest rarity, undated, minted during the reign of Charles IV (1346 - 1353) at the Marche mint.
The plaque is its subdivision, the third of a plaque is an analogally system as with the gros.
1 plaque = 3 thirds of plaque = 9 tournois noirs
1/3 of a plaque should correspond to an esterlin (V. Tourneur, RBN, vol. LXXIV, 1922, p. 224)
Only two copies known and preserved to date in the cabinet of the medals of Brussels.
The first copy was first described in 1895, Bernays and Vannerus also analyzed this piece. The second copy was discovered in 1922 during the discovery of a treasure in Marche-en-Famenne (see below).
First description of this piece, written by Baudouin de Jonghe, former president of the Royal Society of Numismatics of Belgium
in 1895. Article published by the RBN vol. LI pp. 361-370.
Extract of the article written by Mr. Victor Tourneur on the find of Marche-en-Famenne. This treasure included a very large number of
coins from Luxembourg, Liège, Brabant, France, etc. Among these hundreds of pieces, a second copy of this plaque.
The weight of the two pieces listed by Weiller was 3.58 g. and 3.92 g.
Bernays & Vannerus mention a weight of 3.91 g., Probst takes the same weight.
