Which Medieval French King is this?

This is actually a modern (1968) medal from a series commemorating medieval French kings. It's taken from an actual coin and I think the design is ca. 13-14th century. Anybody recognize it?

Alright, I'll take a stab and say Charlemagne.

Guess I'll have to dig out the Mayhew and look this coin up.

That is based on a gold Franc a cheval of John II (AD 1350-1364).

Reference: Mayhew-182

This is the first time I have seen a dead king smile and laugh in one post.... maybe I am not with it........

Wayne, you just have to know how to tickle the royal funnybone.

At least I correctly nailed the time period!

Ya just have to watch that dead king..... He might sneak up on you......

Askari · November 23, 2003 11:42PM

Nah, the dry bones squeak.

newbiecollector · November 23, 2003 11:46PM

I figure that's correct.. I just never thunk it... 'course I ain't never been a King and I am not dead yet. I don't think I am.

Boy.... I got lots to still learn.........
