Aanvullende informatie

Maximilian Emanuel of Bavaria occupied the Spanish Netherlands — including Namur — as Governor-General from 1692, but his support for France during the War of the Spanish Succession cost him everything: Louis XIV's defeat at Ramillies in 1706 drove him from the region entirely. He governed in exile from Mons, then from French territory, issuing coinage in his own name for territories he no longer physically controlled. This piece dates to that phantom administration, struck six years after he had lost effective possession of Namur.

The Treaty of Utrecht the following year, 1713, extinguished his claim permanently.
