Denier - Lothair I Verdun mint, temple

正面描述	Central field features a plain cross pattée with a pellet in each angle, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The peripheral legend, rendered in Carolingian majuscule, reads HLOTHARIVS IMP, identifying the issuer as Emperor Lothair I, and is separated from the inner circle by a smooth annular band. The overall design follows the standard Carolingian cross-type denier typology established under the monetary reforms of Charlemagne and continued by his successors. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, characteristic of mid-9th century hammered silver coinage.

背面描述	Central device depicts a stylised Carolingian temple or church façade in schematic form, showing a triangular pediment surmounted by a small cross above a colonnade of vertical pillars resting on a stepped base, all rendered in a flat, linear hammered style typical of Verdun mint issues. The design is contained within a beaded inner circle, around which the peripheral legend VIRIDVNVM CIVIS runs in Carolingian majuscule lettering, identifying the city of Verdun as the place of issue. The temple motif on Verdun deniers is thought to reference a local ecclesiastical building and is a distinctive feature of this mint's Carolingian coinage.
