A billon coin struck by Guy II, Bishop of Cambrai (1296-1306), and copied by William I of Hainaut (1304- 1337). It has on the obverse the rude figure of an eagle which was mistaken by the common people for a cock, and the nickname was consequently applied to the coin. See Blanchet, Nouveau manuel de numismatique. 1890. (i. 19. 461).
