| Reverse description | A short, pattée-style cross occupies the central field, its arms extending toward a beaded inner circle that encircles the entire design. Small pellets or annulets appear in the angles between the cross arms, a common decorative motif on 12th-century feudal deniers of northern France. The field shows typical die weakness and metal flow characteristic of hammered billon coinage of this period. The outer border consists of a prominent row of beads following the irregular contour of the flan. No legend is present on the reverse, consistent with the anonymous classification of this type. |
