Mint
Thorn, Netherlands (1000-1631)Comments
Ferdinand died in 1564, so the coin must have been struck in the first part of Margaret's reign (1557-1564), most likely 1560-1563 when daalders were struck in Ferdinand's name.
VdChijs8 catalog states that the text on the reverse ends with ‘THORENSIS’, though the drawing says ‘THOERENSIS’.
