| Reverse description | Two lines of Latin legend arranged horizontally across the field, separated by a central beaded line, with small crosslets flanking the inscription above and below. The text identifies the issuing city of Paris and is contained within a beaded outer border. The hammered flan displays the characteristic irregular shape and shallow relief typical of feudal French deniers of the mid-tenth century. |
