The French quarter escudo (quart d'écu) of Henri III belongs to the series of silver coinage struck during his reign from 1574 to 1589, a period of religious conflict and monetary reform in France. This example, dated 1583 and graded Fine, displays the fleur-de-lis and cross design characteristic of the Henri III escudo series, with the king's name and date legible in the legend. P.T. Puttock provenance from London connects the piece to the British numismatic trade.
