Reverse description Central field depicts a highly stylized schematic representation of a church façade or temple, rendered in a primitive Romanesque manner typical of early 11th-century feudal coinage. The structure features a triangular pediment above a columned portal, with a horizontal baseline beneath. A circular Latin legend encircles the central temple motif along the coin's periphery, naming the city of Soissons as the place of issue. The overall design is bold but crudely executed, reflecting the artisanal workshop practices of the period.
