| Aversbeschreibung | Central field dominated by a large interlaced RR monogram, representing the initials of Robert of Lenoncourt, rendered in a bold Gothic style. The monogram is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, around which the Latin legend IN LABORE QVIES runs in the outer field. The design is characteristic of mid-16th-century episcopal coinage, with the monogram serving as the primary heraldic device in lieu of a portrait. |

| Reversbeschreibung | A floriated or crosslet cross occupies the central field, its arms terminating in trefoil or fleur-de-lis finials, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding outer legend DE · LENONCOVRT identifies the issuing bishop by family name. The overall composition is typical of French episcopal small coinage of the period, with the cross as the principal religious and heraldic symbol. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Robert of Lenoncourt held the see of Metz from 1551 to 1555, his tenure coinciding with one of the most strategically fraught moments in the city's history — Henri II's military occupation of Metz in 1552, which effectively ended imperial control over the Three Bishoprics. The city's absorption into French royal orbit made subsequent episcopal coinage issues politically ambiguous, issued under a bishop whose temporal authority was rapidly being subsumed by the Crown.
Flon records only a handful of die combinations for this type, and surviving examples in any condition are genuinely scarce.
