| Beschrijving keerzijde | Facing bust of Saint Stephen, the patron saint of the Diocese of Metz, depicted in a stylized Romanesque manner with a beaded nimbus encircling the head. The figure is shown in frontal view with schematic drapery rendered in low relief, typical of mid-11th-century episcopal coinage. A beaded inner circle surrounds the bust, and a beaded outer border frames the coin. The peripheral legend names the saint, distributed around the circumference of the irregular flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Adalbero III held the see of Metz as a creature of imperial patronage, appointed under the direct influence of the Salian court during the height of the Investiture controversy's opening tensions. His episcopate coincided with the pontificate of Leo IX — himself a former bishop of Toul, just thirty kilometers south — whose reformist agenda placed the Lotharingian church at the center of the battle between papal and imperial authority over ecclesiastical appointments.
Epinal, as a mint site under Metz's jurisdiction, produced deniers of notably variable weight across this period, which the 1.1g survival reflects accurately.
