| Reverse description | A highly stylised and degenerate representation of a classical temple or church facade forms the central device, rendered in a schematic fashion consistent with late Carolingian die-cutting conventions. The architectural motif displays a triangular pediment surmounting a colonnade of vertical shafts, with a central pellet element. The mint name TREVERIS is distributed as a legend arranged around the temple device within a beaded border, identifying the Trier mint. The overall execution reflects the progressive stylisation of the temple type as it evolved through successive Carolingian reigns. |
