Denier - Charles II

正面描述	Central plain cross with a pellet in each quarter, all enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding field carries a circular Latin legend reading HCAROLVS IMPER, identifying the issuer as Emperor Charles. The coin is struck on a broad, irregular flan typical of Carolingian hammered coinage, with the design elements showing the crude but bold workmanship characteristic of ninth-century Italian royal mints.

附加信息	Charles II — Charles the Bald — was crowned Holy Roman Emperor in Rome in 875, and this denier belongs to the narrow window between that coronation and his death two years later while crossing the Mont Cenis pass in retreat from an Italian campaign gone wrong. His Italian kingship was contested almost immediately by Carloman of Bavaria, which lends a certain instability to the entire monetary output of the period. Issues attributable confidently to his Italian reign are few.
