Beschrijving voorzijde Central field dominated by a plain cross pattée dividing the flan into four quarters, each canton left plain. The cross extends to the inner beaded border that frames the design. A circular Latin legend surrounds the cross, reading HVGVO BRVNNI (Hugh the Brown), interrupted by a cross pattée at the commencement. The overall style is characteristic of feudal hammered coinage of southwestern France, with an irregular flan and shallow, somewhat worn relief.

Aanvullende informatie

Hugh XIII of Lusignan inherited Angoulême through a comital line that had spent most of the thirteenth century entangled in the conflicts between the French crown and English Plantagenet interests. By the time this denier was struck, the county had been definitively absorbed into the French royal orbit following the defeat of Hugh X at Taillebourg in 1242 — yet the Lusignan counts retained minting rights for another generation, producing coins that increasingly mimicked Capetian weight standards while nominally remaining seigneurial issues.

Hugh XIII died without legitimate heirs, and Angoulême passed to the French crown in 1308.
