2 Groat 'Kromstaart' - John II of Wesemael

The Lordship of Rummen was a minor feudal holding in the Prince-Bishopric of Liège, and its coinage rights were exercised sporadically rather than systematically. John II of Wesemael held Rummen across nearly five decades, a tenure that explains the wide date range assigned to this type rather than any particular minting campaign. The 'Kromstaart' designation — literally "crooked tail" — is a collector nickname derived from a specific die characteristic, not an official denomination term.

VanH Atlas G 2025 remains the primary reference for Low Countries feudal silver of this class, and the vdCh concordance confirms this as a distinct subtype within the broader Rummen groat series.
