| Aanvullende informatie |
John of Heinsberg governed the Prince-Bishopric of Liège for over three decades, a tenure marked by persistent friction with the city's trade guilds and a costly entanglement in the dynastic politics of the Burgundian Netherlands. The brûlé — a low-grade billon small change struck across much of the southern Low Countries during the fifteenth century — was the workhorse denomination of daily market transactions, and Liège's versions circulated alongside those of competing ecclesiastical and secular lords in a notoriously fragmented monetary environment.
John was ultimately forced to abdicate in 1455 under pressure from Philip the Good of Burgundy.
