| Reverse description | Central field displays a plain cross pattee dividing the field into four equal quadrants, a design type common to Capetian royal deniers of the eleventh century. The cross is boldly struck in high relief and is enclosed within a plain inner circle. The surrounding circular legend names the city of Paris as the issuing authority, separated from the inner circle by a narrow flat border. The flan edges are characteristically uneven and chipped, typical of hammered silver coinage of this period. The reverse design follows the standard Carolingian-derived cross type employed throughout early French royal coinage. |
