Kuinre (former lordship in the northern part of Overijssel, located north of Vollenhove on the border with Friesland, now
part of the municipality of IJsselham) had minting activity in the 14th century at the castle in Kuinre and in Emmeloord,
carried out by the lords (knights) of Kuinre. The coinage consisted of imitations of well-known English, Flemish, Hainaut,
Hollandic, and Utrecht types: sterlings, double sterlings, pennies, gros tournois and their subdivisions, and placks. This
production shows strong similarities to the minting of the lords of Coevorden. Coins are known in the names of: Hendrik III,
ca. 1294–ca. 1318; Jan I, ca. 1318–1337; Jan II, 1337–ca. 1362; Herman I, ca. 1362–1376.
