| Obverse description | Central field bearing a plain cross pattée within a beaded inner circle, with a small pellet in each of the four angles formed by the cross arms. The surrounding legend reads LVDOVVICVS REX, identifying the issuing monarch Louis, King, rendered in Carolingian majuscule lettering. The field between the inner circle and the coin's irregular flan edge displays the royal titulature, separated by a quatrefoil stop. The die work is typical of late Carolingian hammered coinage, with uneven flan edges and variable letter spacing. A group of pellets is visible above the inner circle at the top of the field. |
