Context
Rare plaque, type of association Luxembourg-Bar. The average weight of 7 pieces analyzed was 3.79 g. Despite the small number of known copies, Weiller was able to identify a fairly large number of legend variants. For more details see Weiller, p. 34. Do not rely too much on the legend variants of a single author, some inaccuracy is given for this plaque. A number of legend variants seem to be missing in the Weiller. Probst does not indicate any, just mentions 'variants of legends'. First description of the coin by N. van Werveke in 1892 and published by the RBN, vol. XLVIII, 1895, pp. 384-385. Source: the illustrations in this sheet come from the article by N. van Werveke, published in 1892 in the RBN, vol. XLVIII, p. 387
