| Reverse description | Hammered reverse displaying a plain cross extending to the inner border, dividing the field into four quadrants each containing a triskelion or spiral ornament, with a small crescent or pellet also visible in the field. A beaded or rope-pattern inner circle encloses the cross design. The outer legend, introduced by a cross pattée, reads IOTGERVS MPT, identifying the moneyer Otger responsible for this issue. The rendering of the cross and its associated ornamental fillers is consistent with Low Countries coinage practice of the mid-eleventh century, reflecting both Carolingian and Ottonian die-cutting traditions. |
