Catalogue <strong>of</strong> <strong>European</strong> Mints 95<br />

Amiens, and perhaps at Roye, put his name on <strong>the</strong> coins about 1160.<br />

Crespi or Crispetum. Gui de Chatillon seems to have struck money here<br />

in 1320 in common with his uncle, and both incurred in that year <strong>the</strong><br />

censure <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Parliament for <strong>the</strong>ir neglect <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> standard.<br />

Crest, Dept. <strong>of</strong> Drome, a mint <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Counts <strong>of</strong> Valentinois and Diois,<br />

a fief distinct from <strong>the</strong> temporalities <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> See <strong>of</strong> Die, and united on<br />

several occasions to <strong>the</strong> Crown, finally in 1793, when it was declared<br />

part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> national domain. The money is <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Poitevin type. Com.<br />

Valent. Et DCS., etc.<br />

Creuznach, Westphalia, <strong>the</strong> place <strong>of</strong> origin <strong>of</strong> deniers <strong>of</strong> Johann II.,<br />

Count <strong>of</strong> Sponheim (1295-1340), with Mo. Nova. Crvcenac.<br />

Crevacuore, Piedmont, a mint <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Fieschi family, Signori <strong>of</strong> Messerano<br />

(i5th-i6th c.). Comp. Messerano.<br />

Crevecoeur, N. Brabant, a mint <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Heeren or seigneurs <strong>of</strong> that<br />

place in <strong>the</strong> I5th c.<br />

Cronstadt, Transylvania, <strong>the</strong> place <strong>of</strong> mintage <strong>of</strong> a thaler during <strong>the</strong><br />

siege <strong>of</strong> 1660. On <strong>the</strong> reverse occurs :<br />

Pr<strong>of</strong>undis ad te<br />

clamamus,<br />

Doniine. Serva nos, quiaperimus.<br />

Croppcnstadt, Prussian Saxony, a mint <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Counts <strong>of</strong> Blankenburg<br />

in <strong>the</strong> I3th c.<br />

Cuen^a, a mint <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Moorish Princes.<br />

Cugnon, or Chassepierre-Cugnon, at present a village in Luxemburgh,<br />

but in <strong>the</strong> iyth c. a mint <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Counts <strong>of</strong> Lowenstein-Wer<strong>the</strong>im (1611-<br />

97). There are only doubles tournois. It has been suspected that this<br />

was at an earlier date <strong>the</strong> source <strong>of</strong> numismatic forgeries. There is<br />

an ecu <strong>of</strong> Jean-Theodor, 1623, and a thaler <strong>of</strong> Euchaire Casimir, 1697,<br />

with a singular array <strong>of</strong> titles. See Schulman, ix. 447, 578.<br />

Cuilemborg, Gueldres, probably <strong>the</strong> mint <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> lords <strong>of</strong> that fief in<br />

<strong>the</strong> i6th c. The original seat and title were derived from Pallant, and<br />

Cuilemborg : 5 penningen, 1591.<br />

<strong>the</strong> later representatives <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> family describe <strong>the</strong>mselves as <strong>of</strong> that<br />

place. Some very remarkable copper coins emanated hence about 1590<br />

pieces <strong>of</strong> 5, 4, 3, 2, i, and \ penningen ;<br />

<strong>the</strong>re is also silver currency.<br />

A gold gulden <strong>of</strong> s'<br />

Berg (or s' Heerenberg), Egmond, Moeurs-Sawerden, and Cuilemborg.<br />

Culm, a mint <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> ancient duchy <strong>of</strong> Massow, Pommern, and <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

Grand Masters <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Teutonic Order.<br />

Culmbach, Bavaria, or Upper Franconia, <strong>the</strong> place <strong>of</strong> origin <strong>of</strong> copper<br />

money struck by <strong>the</strong> Burgraf <strong>of</strong> Niirnberg by authority <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Emperor<br />

Charles IV. in 1361, and <strong>of</strong> money <strong>of</strong> necessity struck by Albert, Margraf<br />
