Comments

Only three to four known.

Passon (2022) mixes two coins up. Passon 73.4 shows an image of a cut coin with the arrows mark (C18), but the text mention the 'cc' mark (C17) as well. It also refers to Scholten 1414, where it is described as a cut coin with C18 and C17. Passon 73.5 is also described as a cut coin with C17 and C18, and it shows an image with these marks, but refers to Scholten 1415. The latter catalog describes 1415 as only marked with C18 (and not C17). So, the reference number of Passon (2022) in the box on this page is based on the images.
