Commentary


Ce type appartient à la deuxième phase du monnayage d'Albert et Isabelle (1612 et 1621). Le double souverain frappé à partir de 1612 est leur plus importante dénomination d'or. Il existe deux variétés, l'une sans millésime, l'autre, comme notre exemplaire, avec un millésime placé sous le trône d'Albert et Isabelle (1613, 1616-1620)..

Historical background


SPANISH NETHERLANDS - TOURNAI - ALBERT AND ISABELLA

(1598-07/13/1621)

The Archdukes ruled the Spanish Netherlands between 1598 and 1621 on behalf of Philip III (1598-1621). Albert, Archduke of Austria (1559-1621), was the son of Maximilian II, Holy Roman Emperor and Isabella of Spain (1566-1633), daughter of Philip II of Spain. Isabella married Albert in 1599, and they were immediately appointed governors of the Netherlands.
