| Additional information |
Reinald, Count of Jülich in the early fifteenth century, issued this small silver heller during a period when the lower Rhineland was fragmented among competing ecclesiastical and secular lords, each minting their own petty coinage to assert jurisdictional rights. At 0.18 g, pieces like this were often the smallest denomination in daily exchange, handling transactions that larger coins couldn't easily accommodate — bread, tolls, minor market dues.
Noss JMA#180 places it within a tight three-year window, suggesting attribution rests on die study rather than documentary record.
