| Aversbeschreibung | Central field bearing the initial H surmounted by the legend IMPERATOR, all executed in rudimentary relief characteristic of 12th-century Lucchese hammered billon coinage. The lettering is arranged in two lines across the flan, referencing the Holy Roman Emperor Henry VI under whose nominal authority the commune struck this issue. The flan is irregular and slightly cusped at the corners, reflecting the hand-struck production technique typical of medieval Italian denari. Surface shows dark patination consistent with billon alloy and extended circulation. |

Lucca's deniers invoking the name "Henricus" represent one of the more peculiar continuities in medieval Italian coinage — the city kept striking in the name of Henry long after the specific emperor the legend referenced had ceased to matter politically. The formula became effectively municipal, the imperial name hollowed into a civic convention that persisted across reigns and across the broader collapse of direct imperial authority in Tuscany following the Investiture Controversy.
The "lucensis communi" attribution distinguishes this issue as struck under communal authority rather than imperial delegation — a distinction Bellesia's classification makes explicit.
