| Obverse description | Facing crowned bust of Jean the Blind, Count of Luxembourg, rendered in a bold, stylized Gothic manner characteristic of medieval hammered coinage. The effigy is depicted full-face with a prominent crown surmounted by a central cross, framed by a beaded inner circle. The facial features are rendered in high relief with rudimentary but expressive detail typical of early 14th-century workshop practice. The surrounding field shows the remnants of a circular Latin legend in uncial script. |
