Filips II, koning van Spanje, rekenpenning van de rekenkamer van Bourgondië te Dole Possibly 1562 - 1568

This small, round, copper "Jeton" or counter, dated sometime between 1562-1568, depicts Philip II, King of Spain, and is a rare example of a "rekenpenning" or counting token. The token features an elaborate design on the obverse, showing a stylized shield with a lion and a crown, while the reverse depicts Philip II's coat of arms, a symbol of his authority and power. This small token is a testament to the intricate and often overlooked world of 16th century European numismatics.
