| Beschrijving keerzijde | A bold pattee or plain cross occupies the central field, dividing the reverse into four quarters. A small annulet (ring) is placed in the upper-right canton and the letter A appears in the adjacent canton, serving as mint or die differentiating marks. The cross is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, beyond which the circumferential legend runs. The entire design is characteristic of the Capetian denier style, with the cross and legend layout following the established conventions of early 12th-century French royal coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Louis VI spent much of his reign fighting to bring the Île-de-France under genuine royal control, and his mint at Orléans operated within a monetary environment still heavily fragmented by baronial coinage. The Orleans denier of this period belongs to a moment when Capetian monetary authority was being reasserted rather than assumed — Louis's father Philip I had largely lost control of regional minting to local lords, and the recovery was slow and contested.
Dy royales 120 is among the scarcer documented Capetian denier types, with surviving examples frequently showing irregular flan edges consistent with the hand-cutting methods of early twelfth-century French workshops.
