Beschrijving voorzijde Equestrian figure of the bishop-count John of Arzilières depicted in right profile, mounted on a prancing horse and clad in full armour with a visored helmet; the rider holds an upright sword in his right hand and carries a shield on his left arm, the shield bearing heraldic decoration. The composition fills the central field within a beaded inner circle, rendered in the bold, somewhat schematic style characteristic of early 14th-century Lorraine hammered coinage. The surrounding legend, separated from the field by the beaded border, reads: IOhAn` COMES TVLLEnS`, identifying the issuer as John, Count of Toul.

Aanvullende informatie

John of Arzilières held the see of Toul during a period when the bishops of the three Lorraine sees — Toul, Metz, and Verdun — were in near-constant friction with the Duke of Lorraine over fiscal and jurisdictional rights. Episcopal coinage from Toul in this period was itself a political act, asserting monetary prerogative against encroaching ducal authority. The baudekin denomination, a small billon or silver fractional struck across several Lorraine ecclesiastical mints, takes its name from a corrupted form of "Baldwin," likely tracing back to earlier Rhenish monetary influence.

Toul's minting activity under John is sparsely documented, which accounts for the wide eleven-year attribution window assigned by Flon.
