Comments

(en)

This coin was an imitation of the riyal of Edward IV of England. The differentiation can either be made by the small coat of arms of Arkel on the hind stern and/or the poorer quality of the images and lettering. The lions on the coat of arms are also attributed as the coat of arms of Arkel, which actually consists of 2 bretessed and contrabretessed horizontal beams and might lookalike.
