Additional information

Jacqueline of Bavaria spent the years 1428–1433 locked in a political and military struggle with her cousin Philip the Good of Burgundy over control of Holland, Zeeland, and Hainaut. The brief joint coinage of 1429–1431 reflects the Treaty of Delft, which compelled Jacqueline to accept Philip as regent and co-issuer — a humiliation formalized in metal. She formally abdicated all claims in 1433, making this issue a narrow window when two genuinely antagonistic rulers shared a mint authority neither fully trusted the other to hold.
