This piece directly imitates Edward III's Anglo-Saxon denier by copying the obverse with the crowned head from the obverse, framed by long curls covering the ears and on the reverse with a cross confined by 4 groups of 3 globules dividing the legend.
Often referred to as "lushbournes" or "lussenburgers", these coins were imported massively into England, and caused great harm as they were of lighter weight and composition.
Comparing the weight of the esterlin (1.04 g) with Anglo-Saxon deniers, Chautard had noticed that the Luxembourgish coin had a lower weight. (BV, p. 100, 114)
The average weight of 13 coins listed by Weiller was 0.85 g. (Weiller, p. 31)
As on all Luxembourg coins, Jean the Blind is called king of Bohemia REX B. This coin is one of only two coins (see also L#100-1) where he takes the title of Count of Luxembourg COM ES
Varieties of legends and punctuation:
- Obverse:
a. +ЄIWAnES DI GRA REX B
b. +ЄDWAnES DS REGISV B
c. +ЄIWAnES ₀DI₀ GRA REX B
- Reverse:
a. COM ЄSL VCEB VOB
b. COM ESL VCEB OVR
c. COM ЄSL VCEB VOR
More than half of these coins are still in the Medal Cabinet of Copenhagen. Among the coins of Weiller, 8 came from treasures B.123 (Marche-en-Famenne, Belgium, 1922), B146 (Kirial, Denmark, 1967) and B152 (Saerslev, Denmark, 1910)
