| Reverse description | A stylised temple or church façade — the so-called 'Christiana Religio' type — depicted as a gabled structure with a central doorway or arch, rendered in a schematic, linear manner characteristic of Carolingian hammered coinage. This motif, derived from the Carolingian reform coinage of Louis the Pious, symbolises the Christian faith. The surrounding peripheral legend XPISTIANA RELIGIO, introduced by a cross, runs clockwise in Carolingian majuscule characters. The flan is irregular and slightly broad, with typical die wear and hammer-strike distortion. |
