背面描述	A stylized quadruped, identified as the deer or stag emblematic of Saint-Gilles, depicted in profile facing left within a beaded inner circle. A small cross or cross-like symbol appears above the animal in the field, with pellets flanking the design. The surrounding circumferential legend in Latin reads ONOR SCI EGIDI, meaning 'Lordship of Saint-Gilles,' referencing the abbey and town of Saint-Gilles-du-Gard. The overall style is characteristic of crude but distinctive feudal southern French hammered coinage of the early twelfth century.

附加信息	Alfonso Jordan was born in 1103 during the First Crusade siege of Tripoli — the "Jordan" in his name referencing his baptism in the river. He inherited the County of Toulouse and Saint-Gilles upon his father Raymond IV's death in 1105, though spent his early years displaced while the county was administered by regents and contested by rivals. These deniers were struck across a reign defined less by territorial consolidation than by the perpetual gravitational pull of crusading politics in both Languedoc and the Levant. Alfonso died in 1148 at Caesarea, almost certainly poisoned, en route to the Second Crusade.
