(Translation: Duke Gothelo.)
Reverse description Reverse displays a schematic architectural or cross-based motif in low, flat relief, consistent with the stylized church or temple facade type common to Lotharingian deniers of this period. The design features angular, geometrically rendered elements including possible column or tower forms, struck on an irregular planchet with characteristic hammered surface texture. The surrounding legend HEINRICVS RE (King Henry) is partially legible, distributed around the central device, though partially weak or off-flan due to the irregular flan and variable die alignment. The field retains typical die-cutting marks and pellet details of the regional workshop tradition.
