| 表面の説明 | Facing crowned bust of John III, Lord of Megen, depicted in a rudimentary medieval style characteristic of small lordship coinages of the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries. The effigy is rendered in low relief with a stylized crown surmounting the head, flanked by pellets or ornamental devices in the field. The portrait is enclosed within a plain inner circle, with the circumferential legend in uncial Latin characters reading IOHAN MEGE separated by a cross pattée at the commencement of the inscription. |

| 裏面の説明 | Central device consisting of a long cross with decorative terminals dividing the field into four quarters, with a small heraldic shield or ornamental motif in the lower portion of the field, enclosed within a plain inner circle. The cross design follows the standard denier typology prevalent in the Low Countries during the late medieval period. Surrounding the central device, the circumferential legend in uncial Latin characters reads MONETA NOVA DE MEGE, identifying this as a new coinage of the Lordship of Megen, initiated with letters A B C D preceding the main legend text. |

Megen was a tiny lordship on the Maas in Gelderland, and its coinage rights were perpetually contested. John III issued fractional copper denominations at a moment when small-change shortages across the Low Countries created genuine local demand — larger regional powers rarely bothered with denominations this small, leaving the gap to minor lords willing to exploit the privilege.
The vdCh reference trailing an octothorpe signals the type is catalogued but incompletely documented, a situation common with Megen copper where survival rates are low enough that die studies remain unfinished.
