| Beschrijving voorzijde | Stylized diademed bust facing right, rendered in the coarse, schematic manner characteristic of early medieval French feudal coinage. A pellet appears in the field before the face, likely serving as a decorative or identifying mark. The hair is indicated by a series of triangular or wedge-shaped elements above the head, and a row of pellets is visible along the lower portion of the bust. The overall style reflects the degenerate Carolingian artistic tradition, with bold, deeply cut lines and an irregular flan typical of hammered silver deniers of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The anonymous deniers of Blois from this decade fall within the earliest phase of feudal coinage in the Loire valley, issued under the authority of the counts of Blois at a moment when Carolingian monetary infrastructure had effectively collapsed and regional lords had assumed de facto minting rights without formal royal sanction. Thibaut I "le Tricheur" held the county during this window, and his territorial ambitions — which brought him into sustained conflict with both the Capetians and the Angevins — made a stable local coinage politically useful.
