Omschrijving:

Ontwerp: On the obverse we see King Henry III seated on a throne, crowned, and wearing his royal robes. In his right hand is a scepter, which passes under his arm. In his left, an orb or monde surmounted by a cross of four pellets. Under his feet there is a mosaic design. The inscription reads HENRICUS REX III. The reverse of the coin features a long cross, each limb bottoné, extending to the edges of the coin. A beaded circle divides the outer legend from the inner section, in which, in each of the interstices of the cross is found a five-petalled rose set between three small pellets. The legend states the minter and the town where the coin was made - "WILLEM ON LVND". Three characters form the legend appear in each quarter of the coin - and it takes careful examination of the coin to decode the legend as it appears "WIL LEM ONL VND". Some examples read "LVNDEN" of "LVNDE" in plaats van LVND. Willem was the King's Goldsmith, William of Gloucester or William Fitz Otho.
