Flanders? Medieval coin

Recommended Posts

Does anybody remember the 11-14th century medieval penny/denier/whatever with the large flat based crown, facing bust and hair which looks like a Christmas tree either side, ie triangular with a pot at the bottom representing curls - it is quite distinctive. Where was it issued and by whom? I can't find a picture of it to show. Thanks.

No response so far and this is bugging me, and yes, I know there's a hole in it.

Long cross, 3 pellets in each angle on the reverse and I'm pretty certain it's contemporary with the northern european sterling imitations of the 13/14th centuries.

Anyone with a copy of Engel et Serreure or the full version of Chautard? It isn't in the abridged set of plates of the latter published in the 1960s.

Might be a hint of A pellet S in one quarter,but is essentially clipped/worn down
