| Additional information |
The Lordship of Bergh occupied a politically volatile position in the late sixteenth century — nominally within the Habsburg Netherlands but increasingly drawn into the revolt against Spanish rule. Frederick van den Bergh, as lord, issued coinage during the early years of the Union of Utrecht period, when local lords retained meaningful minting authority before provincial consolidation tightened control. The Delmonte S#606 designation places this among the scarcer documented Bergh issues, with surviving examples relatively few given the lordship's modest minting output and short window of independent striking.
