| Aanvullende informatie |
Baldwin II inherited Edessa in 1100 after his cousin Baldwin I departed to claim the Kingdom of Jerusalem, making the county the oldest of the Crusader states and perpetually the most exposed — its eastern frontier abutted directly on Muslim-held territory with no buffer. The copper follis coinage he produced was strictly functional, circulating among a population that was overwhelmingly Armenian Christian rather than Latin, a demographic reality that shaped the iconographic choices of the mint throughout his tenure.
Metcalf's classification of this type as 116 places it within a well-documented sequence, though die alignment and flan preparation vary considerably across surviving examples.
