Baudequin - Pierre III de Mirepoix

Pierre III de Mirepoix held the bishopric of Cambrai during a period of acute tension between the French crown and the prince-bishoprics of the Low Countries frontier. Cambrai occupied an awkward geographic and political position — nominally within the Holy Roman Empire as an imperial city, yet increasingly subject to French pressure throughout the early fourteenth century. The baudequin coinage issued under Pierre drew its name from a corruption of "Baldwin," a nod to the monetary traditions of the region's Flemish neighbors.

The Crinon reference places this type at number 39 in the baudequin sequence, suggesting it was not an isolated emission but part of a deliberate series of episcopal monetary policy under his tenure.
