Description

Crusaders, Kingdom of Jerusalem. Baldwin III or Amaury (1163-1174) Fragment of AV Bezant (4mm, 0.13g). Jerusalem? mint. Visible parts of the legends. Very Rare, VF

In all probability these cut gold fragments with Latin legends were minted and immediately cut for circulation as bullion. There are no known examples of an entire coin, the only evidence for this coinage at all being these cuttings.

Privately acquired from Munzen & Medaillen GmbH, December 2020
Privately acquired from Sven Olof Johansson, Vallentuna, Zürich coin fair October 1974
