A type imitating directly the English penny (reigns of Edward I to Edward III), with the head crowned from the front, framed by long curls covering the ears and on the reverse a confined cross with 4 groups of 3 globules, dividing the legend. Often referred to as "lushbournes" or "lussenburgers".
Average weight of 27 pieces: 1.19 g. (Weiller, p. 30)
Variants of legends and punctuation:
- 10 for the obverse and
- 12 for the reverse (all catalogs combined)
The legend of the piece represented on this sheet seems unpublished:
Compared to the catalogs it would be a variant of the following numbers:
- L# 44-variant Probst
obverse same as L # 44-1,
reverse GEH instead of CEH
- W# 49 type variant/d. Weiller
obverse not listed (similar to n ° c.)
reverse identical to the n ° d.
- BV# 53-variant Bernays & Vannerus
obverse 5 different points
reverse 8 different points
More similarities with the variety mentioned by B&V (obverse 3 points / reverse 2 points)
