Beschrijving keerzijde Central field depicts the stylized castle or tower of Tours (châtel tournois) surmounted by a flared episcopal miter with crown, rendered in Gothic hammered style. The tower motif is highly stylized with crenellations and characteristic loop openings. The central device is encircled by a border of twelve fleur-de-lys arranged evenly around the field, a characteristic feature of the Tournois coinage tradition. The outer border carries the circular Latin legend in Gothic lettering, separated by mullets or stars.

Aanvullende informatie

Gérard de Dainville was appointed Bishop of Cambrai in 1372 following a contested election that required papal arbitration — the diocese had a long history of jurisdictional friction between its ecclesiastical lords and the French crown. His groschen tournois closely follows the royal French tournois pattern that had dominated northern European trade coinage since Louis IX standardized it in the thirteenth century, a deliberate signal of monetary alignment with France at a moment when Cambrai's political allegiances were under pressure from both Valois and imperial interests.
