Beschrijving keerzijde Central device consists of a cross pattée with slightly flared arms, centered within a beaded or linear inner circle, typical of early medieval feudal coinage of the Carolingian tradition. The cross divides the inner field into four quarters. The surrounding circular legend reads ✠ LVCVNS CIVITS, denoting the city of Lyon. The execution is crude and characteristic of hammered billon coinage of the mid-tenth century, with irregular flan and variable strike depth.

Aanvullende informatie

Hugh the Black, Duke of Burgundy, held Lyon through a period of sustained contestation between Burgundian ambition and the Carolingian successor kingdoms. His minting rights at Lyon were exercised during the years when the fragmentation of Carolingian authority was actively reshaping which local powers could legitimately strike coin — and which were simply doing so because no one could stop them. The Boudeau variant attribution here suggests a die anomaly or legend discrepancy not captured in the primary Duplessy reference.
