| 背面描述 | Plain cross with equal arms occupying the central field, set within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding circular legend reads CΛRLVS REX, inscribed between two concentric solid circles, with a cross preceding the inscription. The design follows the standard Carolingian denier reverse type, with the royal titulature identifying the issuer as King Charles. The flan is irregular, consistent with hand-hammered medieval production. |

Charles II ("the Bald") received the County of Barcelona through the Treaty of Verdun in 843, which partitioned the Carolingian Empire among Louis the Pious's three surviving sons. Barcelona at this point functioned as a frontier march against al-Andalus, and coinage from the county was tied directly to Carolingian monetary reform rather than any local tradition. These deniers follow the reformed penny standard Charles himself had codified for the Frankish realm.
Surviving specimens are scarce — the March was repeatedly raided, and the county's commercial economy remained thin relative to northern Frankish centers where comparable types circulated in volume.
