Reverse description The reverse presents a four-line inscription within the central field, conveying the imperial title and the mint city name. This inner epigraphic panel is surrounded by a circumferential outer legend, creating a double-register arrangement characteristic of Pavian imperial deniers of the Salian period. The lettering style is consistent with mid-eleventh-century North Italian hammered coinage, displaying irregular letter forms and spacing resulting from hand-engraved dies. The overall design is devoid of figurative elements, adhering to the purely textual type established for this series.
