| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bears the retrograde or irregular monogram of Carloman I, rendered in bold raised letters characteristic of early Carolingian hammered coinage. The monogram, composed of the interlaced letters of CARLMAN, occupies the majority of the flan and is executed in a crude but distinctive epigraphic style typical of the period. The coin is encircled by a beaded border of irregular roundels, a standard decorative device on Carolingian deniers. The flat, uneven flan reflects the hand-struck hammered technique employed at provincial Carolingian mints. No figurative imagery is present; the design is entirely typographic, consistent with the anonymous monetary reform coinage of the early Carolingian rulers. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays the mint name of Lyon rendered in large, boldly struck Latin capital letters occupying the central field of the flan. The legend LVG, an abbreviation of Lugdunum (the Roman and medieval Latin name for Lyon), is presented in three monumental characters with a horizontal bar or line element above, consistent with abbreviation marks employed on Carolingian coinage. The letters are crudely but legibly formed, reflecting the artisanal quality of provincial hammered production. A beaded border of irregular pellets encircles the entire design, mirroring the treatment of the obverse. The flat, irregular flan and variable die alignment are characteristic features of mid-eighth-century Carolingian mint output. |
