| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crude facing bust of Duke Henry I of Brabant rendered in the Romanesque style, with a roughly schematic head and shoulders occupying the central field. The portrait is executed in low relief with bold, simplified facial features characteristic of hammered medieval coinage. A circular legend in uncial Latin surrounds the effigy, reading the duke's name and title. The flan is irregular and slightly concave, consistent with hand-struck silver deniers of the late 12th to early 13th century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Henry I of Brabant struck deniers at Herstal during a period when the duchy was aggressively consolidating minting rights along the Meuse corridor — Herstal itself being a site of Carolingian-era fiscal significance that Henry leveraged as much for political symbolism as for monetary output. The weight of surviving examples varies considerably within the type, reflecting the loose supervisory grip typical of decentralized Mosan minting rather than any single reform or debasement event.
The Dengis classification separates at least three die variants within this type, suggesting sustained production across multiple workshop campaigns rather than a single concentrated emission.
