Lot description
Grade: XF
Reference: Vossberg 778

A very rare variety of the new type of Michael's shilling.

Distinguished by the presence of punctuation marks on both sides.

The legends started with crosses, in addition, between the abbreviations of the words of the trilaterals. The typeface of the M letters is also different (rounded, typical of inflationary shellacs).

In Vossberg's study referred to as another type (VII), very rare in the trade.

After unsuccessful attempts at reform, during a period of high prices that caused riots in Gdansk and the closure of the mint there, a new ordinance was agreed on July 7. The document was promulgated by the grand master as early as August 24, 1416, which began a period of two currencies.

It introduced new shekels, in fine silver, characterized by a long cross extending beyond the monastic shield. Their exchange rate was set at two "old", "inflationary" Michael's shekels each.
