| Reverse description | The reverse displays a stylised architectural motif, likely representing a gate or a castle tower, rendered in a schematic manner consistent with early 11th-century Lotharingian hammered coinage. The central device features an arched structure with turrets and a rounded arch, interpreted as the symbol of Luxembourg castle or a city gate, a recurring type on counts of Luxembourg issues. Partial beading is visible along the irregular coin rim. The circumferential Latin legend encircles the field, though several letters are weakly struck or partially off-flan due to the irregular planchet. The die work is bold but coarse, as expected for deniers of this period. |
