| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central field features a long sword with a cruciform hilt, point downward, flanked symmetrically by two heraldic shields each bearing the arms of Lorraine, all contained within a beaded inner circle. The composition is bold and well-centered, reflecting the ducal authority of the issuer. The surrounding legend reads mOnETA FCA In nAnCEY, separated by small cross stops and a trefoil ornament, identifying the mint city of Nancy. The lettering is rendered in Gothic majuscules characteristic of 14th-century Lotharingian coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
John I ruled Lorraine from 1346 until his death in 1390, navigating the duchy through the turbulent aftermath of the Black Death and persistent pressure from competing regional powers. This half-groschen issue falls within the period when Lorraine was actively adapting the French gros tournois system to local monetary needs — a practical response to the dominance of French coinage in northeastern trade circuits rather than any formal monetary agreement.
Flon's attribution places this type among a small cluster of issues from John's later reign, distinguished from earlier emissions by subtle metrology shifts that reflect the broader European silver shortage of the 1370s–80s.
