Weerd, a suburb of Utrecht, the Netherlands, situated to the north of the city, was later incorporated into the city and is
known today as the ‘Walled Weerd’. It was here that the bishop’s mint was established during the tenure of Bishops Jan van
Verneburg (1364–1371) and Arnold van Horn (1371–1379). The designation of the mint can be found on groats and half-groats
in the form of MONETA INSVLE TRAI: coin of the island (= waard or weerd) of Utrecht.
