| Aanvullende informatie |
Henri III's copper coinage of the 1580s was struck against a backdrop of civil war — the Wars of Religion had fractured France along confessional lines, and the crown's financial administration was under severe strain. Saint-Lô, operating in Normandy, was one of several provincial mints kept running precisely because centralizing production was no longer practical when roads and supply lines were contested.
The 2nd type designation in the CGKL sequence reflects a die modification made during the run, distinguishing it from earlier strikes of the same reign.
