Commentary


Cette très rare monnaie, s’inspire des monnaies de Langres, dont elle reprend notamment la croisette fichée dans le champ du droit. Seuls quelques exemplaires sont connus et elle manque très souvent aux plus grandes collections. Hugues Ier ne fut duc de Bourgogne que pendant trois ans et ce denier inaugure le monnayage féodale de ce duché.
