| Reverse description | The mint name of Nantes is rendered across the flat field in two horizontal lines of bold Carolingian majuscule letters, divided by a central point or pellet. The upper line reads NAMN and the lower line ETVM, together forming NAMNETVM, the Latin toponym for Nantes. The field is otherwise plain and unadorned, with a beaded border encircling the entire reverse. The large, deeply-cut letterforms are characteristic of the Nantes workshop production under Louis the Pious. |
