| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse field displays the mint name TRICAS (Troyes) arranged in two lines of capital letters, with the upper line reading TRI and the lower line G+, the cross serving as an abbreviation mark or terminal ornament. The bold, somewhat irregular letterforms are consistent with early Carolingian hand-struck coinage. The flan is notably uneven with a rough, jagged edge typical of hammered silver deniers of this pre-reform period. No border or additional decorative elements are present. |

This issue belongs to the first phase of Carolingian monetary reform, predating the 794 Frankfurter Capitulary that would standardize the heavier denier at roughly 1.7g and reorganize royal minting authority across the empire. The Troyes mint held particular administrative significance during this period — the palace at Attigny, frequently used by Charlemagne in the 770s and 780s, fell within the same regional circuit. At 1.04g, this piece reflects the transitional weight standard inherited partly from Merovingian practice.
