| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field features a plain short cross with equal arms in raised relief, set within a raised inner circle that divides the design from the marginal legend. The cross arms extend nearly to the inner border, characteristic of Flemish mite coinage of the period. The surrounding legend is separated by a beaded inner circle and an outer border, with a fleur-de-lis stop mark visible at the top. The hammered fabric results in a slightly irregular flan, consistent with low-denomination Burgundian coinage of the 1477–1482 period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Mary of Burgundy inherited the Burgundian Netherlands in 1477 at age nineteen following the death of her father Charles the Bold at the Battle of Nancy — a succession immediately contested by Louis XI of France, who seized Artois and Burgundy proper. To secure her position, Mary granted the Great Privilege that same year, restoring extensive rights to the Flemish towns that her father had spent decades dismantling. This copper issue belongs to that politically turbulent window between her accession and her death from a riding accident in 1482, after which the Low Countries passed to the Habsburgs through her son Philip.
