| Obverse description | Plain long cross with a short cross bar near the top, dividing the field into four quadrants, each containing a six-pointed star. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the circular Latin legend MONETA METENS surrounding the border, identifying this as the coinage of Metz. The overall style is characteristic of medieval French municipal billon coinage, struck by hammered technique with an irregular flan. |
