Beschrijving voorzijde Central field occupied by the heraldic shield of the House of Hornes, displaying three drinking horns (the characteristic Hornes arms), surmounted by a coronet; the shield is set within a beaded inner circle. Stylized cloud-like forms appear above the shield and flame-like decorative elements surround it, rendered in the Gothic hammered style typical of late 15th-century Mosan coinage. The circumferential legend, in Gothic uncial lettering, runs between the inner beaded circle and the outer toothed rim.

Aanvullende informatie

John of Hornes became Prince-Bishop of Liège in 1484 following a contested election that required papal intervention to resolve. His early coinage — this issue among them — was struck almost immediately after his confirmation, likely as an assertion of ecclesiastical minting authority at a moment when that authority had just been hard-won. The Patard denomination itself was a product of Burgundian monetary influence across the Low Countries, with Liège adopting the type to maintain parity with neighboring coinages in everyday trade.

Dengis 783 is among the scarcer attributable types of his episcopate, which lasted until 1505.
