Beschrijving keerzijde Stylised architectural representation of a fortified castle or donjon depicted frontally, comprising a broad central tower surmounted by a crenellated parapet and flanked by two smaller lateral towers, each with arched openings. The structure rests on a baseline and is rendered in the schematic Romanesque manner characteristic of 11th-century Lotharingian deniers. The design is contained within a beaded inner circle, with the circumscribed Latin legend identifying the fortress of Bouillon.

Aanvullende informatie

Godfrey III — "the Bearded" — held Bouillon as a waypoint in a career defined by rebellion against imperial authority. He spent much of the 1050s and 1060s in open conflict with Emperor Henry III, was stripped of his duchies, and only gradually rehabilitated under Henry IV. Bouillon's coinage from this period sits in the political wreckage of that struggle — small output, uncertain administration, a border lordship asserting itself on silver when it could.

This is also the generation before his son Godfrey of Bouillon led the First Crusade and famously sold or pledged the lordship of Bouillon to the Bishop of Liège in 1096 to finance the campaign.
