| Obverse description | Central cross pattée enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the letters R, E, X, and V distributed one in each quarter; the letters R and E are conjoined to the arms of the cross. A circular legend surrounds the beaded border in the field, rendered in a characteristic Carolingian minuscule-influenced letter style typical of ninth-century Frankish coinage. |
