Reverse description A stylized temple or church facade depicted in the Carolingian architectural type, featuring a triangular gabled roof supported by columns with a stepped or arched entrance, rendered in bold relief typical of hammered Frankish deniers. The architectural motif is a Carolingian convention referencing ecclesiastical authority and derives ultimately from late Roman coin types. The mint name TREVERIS is inscribed in the field or as a surrounding legend, identifying the Trier mint. The flan is irregular and the strike uneven, consistent with hand-hammered production of the early tenth century. A beaded border runs along the coin's periphery.
