Research
I have been collecting coins for more than 30 years and acquired a diverse knowledge about coins, historical back grounds and the numismatic world and of course build a numismatic library. I can offer you therefore additional support.
I am a member of the Royal Dutch Numismatic Society, the Numismatic Society of Rotterdam and the European Numismatic Society (EGMP-Belgium)
Research
I have listed some numismatic subjects, that I am interested in. I am looking for information to make a more detailed study on the coins and their history which can be presented in the future for the benefit of other collectors. I appreciate it when you can give information or can refer to other numismatists. Of course your information will be treated as confidential.
- Together with Paul Torongo compiling a catalogue on the gros compagnon / leeuwengroot struck first in Flanders in 1337 and followed in other parts of the Low Countries and France. Pictures that can be used to identify texts and stops of unknown varieties
- The Leeuwengroten Types of Louis of Nevers, Count of Flanders (1322-1346): A Preliminary Overview
- A Preliminary Look at the Leeuwengroten of the County of Holland Including the Fractional Coins List of Tables
- The Coins of the Dokkum (Klaarkamp) Hoard (1932)
Other subjects that I am researching:
- The counterfeit leeuwendaalder formerly ascribed to Rietberg
- The Many faces of a ducat ; an exploration into Dutch-Russian-Central Asian-Indian monetary relations Dutch gold ducats found in Central Asia and Northern India and their local imitations
- Numismatic evidence of crusaders from the Low Countries (no file yet. Currently I'm collecting data bout this subject)
Crusaders from the Netherlands played a relatively small part in the history of the Crusader States, but they are mentioned in contemporary sources and in a few cases coins of this period both of crusaders states and surrounding Muslim states are found in the Netherlands. It is thought they were brought back by returning crusaders, but the evidence is very little to make any valid assumptions. Coins from the Low Countries of this period are not found in the territories of the former crusaders states Tripoli, Antioch or Jerusalem as far as I know.
I am collecting any information on find spots of crusader coins in The Netherlands and find spots in the Levant of Dutch coins
