Beschrijving voorzijde Within a plain inner circle, the Aragonese heraldic shield bearing four vertical pales (pals), rendered in hammered relief. The shield is centrally positioned in the field and enclosed by a beaded or rope border. The surrounding legend reads: ✠ R. BE. CO.NES., abbreviating the name and title of Count Raimond-Bérenger V, interrupted by decorative elements typical of Provençal feudal coinage of the mid-thirteenth century.

Beschrijving keerzijde A bold cross pattée extends to the edge of the inner circle, dividing the field into four quarters, with three bezants (pellets) placed at the extremity of each arm of the cross. The surrounding marginal legend, partially visible due to the irregular flan, reads E PVINCI, a contraction of 'Provincia' (Provence), separated by the arms of the cross. The overall style is characteristic of mid-thirteenth-century Provençal hammered billon coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

Raimond-Bérenger V ruled Provence with unusual political sophistication for a regional count, engineering the marriages of all four of his daughters to reigning or future kings — including Louis IX of France and Henry III of England. This menut marseillais falls within the final two years of his reign, issued from a county whose commercial wealth depended heavily on Marseille's Mediterranean trade networks. His death in 1245 without male heirs transferred Provence ultimately to the Angevins through his youngest daughter Beatrice.
