| Aanvullende informatie |
Henry IV came to the throne after one of the most destructive civil conflicts in French history, and his monetary reforms were among the first serious attempts to stabilize a coinage that had been debased and counterfeited throughout the Wars of Religion. The XPS mint mark designates Bayonne, a city whose proximity to Spain made monetary integrity both politically and commercially critical. This half écu type was struck across a narrow window before the 1st type was superseded, which keeps surviving populations modest.
The Dy 1202A2 attribution distinguishes this from closely related emissions; Gadoury's 607B confirms the Bayonne assignment. Ciani 1506 groups it without the mint differentiation that later scholarship resolved.
