Beschrijving voorzijde A large cross pattée occupies the central field, its four expanded arms nearly reaching the inner beaded circle. Pellets are placed in the lower two cantons of the cross, a characteristic feature of this episcopal issue. The surrounding legend, rendered in Romanesque majuscule Latin letters, reads HENRICVS EPS, identifying the issuer as Henry, Bishop of Beauvais. The legend is introduced by a Latin cross and runs between the inner beaded border and the irregular coin edge. The overall style is consistent with mid-twelfth-century French feudal billon coinage.

Opschrift voorzijde ✠ HENRICVS EPS
(Translation: Henry, Bishop.)
Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse displays the Carolingian monogram, a complex interlaced ligature device composed of the letters forming CARLVS, presented within a beaded inner circle in the centre of the field. This monogram, a traditional emblem of episcopal authority derived from Carolingian royal prototypes, is rendered in bold Romanesque relief. The surrounding circular legend BELVACENSIS, introduced by a Latin cross, runs between the inner beaded border and the coin's irregular hammered edge, denoting the episcopal see of Beauvais. The design reflects the conservative iconographic conventions common to northern French ecclesiastical coinages of the twelfth century.
