Reverse description Central field features a plain cross dividing the area into four quadrants, with the mint name legend ARA / NIS (abbreviated form of Arvernis, referring to Clermont-Ferrand) disposed in two lines around the cross. The inscription is rendered in Carolingian majuscules. A pellet border frames the design, and the irregular flan reflects the hand-struck hammered technique typical of Carolingian deniers.
