| Reverse description | A bold cross pattée occupies the central field, enclosed within an inner beaded circle. A single pellet is placed in each of the four angles formed by the arms of the cross, producing a symmetrical arrangement of four pellets in total. The surrounding legend runs between the beaded inner circle and the coin's irregular outer edge, in the conventional Carolingian denier format. The strike is typical of hammered medieval billon coinage, with slight irregularities in flan shape. |
