| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a plain cross pattée, with triangular wedge-shaped ornaments filling each of the four quarters. The design is enclosed within a plain inner circle, beyond which runs the Latin legend in degraded Carolingian letterforms. The overall style is characteristic of late Carolingian feudal coinage, with the cross as the dominant motif. The flan is irregular, as typical of hammered deniers of this period. |
