Small Agnel - Joan of Wesemael & Hendrik van Diest

Rummen was a tiny lordship in the Hesbaye region of the Low Countries, and its coinage rights — rarely exercised — derived from imperial privilege rather than any significant economic base. The agnel type itself traces back to French royal issues of the mid-14th century, and its survival into the 1460s as a local imitation reflects how tenaciously smaller lords clung to the prestige of gold coinage even when output was negligible. The joint attribution to Joan of Wesemael and Hendrik van Diest reflects the complex dynastic overlap governing Rummen during this decade.
