Historical background
BERRY - COUNTY OF SANCERRE - ETIENNE I
(1152-1190)
The first coins of Sancerre would have been produced under Stephen I (1152-1190) who was the only count of Sancerre to sign his coins. The coins minted between 1190 and 1327 are anonymous and therefore pose many dating problems..
