Comments

(en) The noble of the 3d emission has slightly higher weight and fineness than the earlier noble of this reign, and can be differentiated from it by the small lion at the left of the ship (approximately 9:30) and the rosette in the center of the cross reverse.

According to Deschamps-dePas, an ordonnance of 14 September, 1427 instructed the Ghent mint to produce golden nobels and half nobels according to the same specifications as used in England ("...aussi bons en poix et en aloy comme ceulx que l'en forge ... en Engleterre"). This nobel of 23 7/8 carats and 6.95 grams was valued at 84 gros.
