| Obverse description | Stylized temple depicted in the field, surmounted by a cross that interrupts the surrounding legend at the top. The temple is rendered with a double pediment, four columns, and a cross motif at its center; the pedestal is formed by a large ovoid element (a variant exists in which the ovoid is replaced by two horizontal lines). The design is executed in the flat, schematic style characteristic of medieval Carolingian-tradition hammered billon deniers. |
