Obverse lettering ✠ SCS LANBERTVS
(Translation: Saint Lambert)
Reverse description Central architectural motif depicted as a stylized chapel or church facade with a triangular pediment surmounted by a small decorative element, above a rectangular structure containing a bold letter M or monogram in high relief, consistent with Carolingian-derived monogram types. The design is executed in a schematic, angular style typical of mid-11th century Mosan hammered deniers. The surrounding legend reads MONETA CEVNAC, identifying the mint of Ciney. The flan is irregular and shows characteristic weakness at the edges from the hammering process.
