September 11, 1709 , which opposed the Bourbons. Against an alliance whose major members were the Habsburg Monarchy. The United Provinces, Great Britain and the Kingdom of Prussia. THESE SPECIAL PERIOD STRIKES ARE PROPERLY KNOWN AS "RECHENPFENNIG'S", SOME ALSO CLASIFY THEM AS "JETON'S". APPARENTLY TO SHORTEN & OTHERWISE SIMPLIFY THE NAME; EXAMPLE , "CONDER TOKEN" vs THE LONGER AND MORE PROPER "18TH CENTURY PROVINCIAL TOKENS".

EITHER WAY YOU NAME HIM, THIS IS ONE. CATALOG: FEUARDENT-1461, 28MM, AR-SILVER, 4.95G. IT IS VERY LIKELY A VETERAN SOLDIER OF THAT GREAT BATTLE WAS THE PROUD OWNER OF THIS MAGNIFICENT PIECE, ESPECIALLY BEING THAT IT WAS MINTED TO COMMEMORATE THE VERY BATTLE OF MALPLAQUET HE FOUGHT IN. SUFFICE IT TO SAY, IT WOULD MOST LIKELY HAVE EITHER BEEN A SOLDIER THAT HAD A BLOOD & GUTS VESTED HISTORICAL INTEREST IN THE PIECE, OR AN ASTUTE ON-THE-SPOT NUMISMATIST WHICH ALSO RECOGNIZED THE HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE, IT'S VERY COOL MOTIF, AND THAT IT WAS MINTED ON A SELDOM ENCOUNTERED SILVER RECHENPFENNIG PLANCHET, THEREBY ACQUIRING SUCH A SPECIMEN FOR HIS CHERISHED & PRIZED COLLECTION.
