| Obverse description | Central field occupied by a plain cross pattée with a single pellet in each of the four quarters, rendered in the crude, bold style characteristic of Carolingian hammered coinage. The cross is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the royal legend disposed in the surrounding annular field. The die work is typical of late Carolingian provincial minting, with irregular flan edges and uneven relief. |
