European medieval coinage can be roughly divided in three uneven categories; the post-antique period, the Carolingian revolution, and finally the later medieval period, which saw the birth of both merchant city-states and larger ‘nation-states’ like England, France or Castile.
Later work will see this category fleshed out more, and maybe split up if necessary.

Count of Anjou, France
AR Denier, Angers mint
Dated to the reign of Fulk IV-Fulk V, some have argued as late as the succeeding Geoffrey V Plantagenet
Fulk V would go on to be a crusader under the Knights Templar and eventually King of Jerusalem from 1131-1143
These people are possibly my Great x28, x27, and x26 Grandfathers respectively.
