Obverse description Central Carolingian-style royal monogram of OTTO composed of interlaced letters, rendered in bold relief within a beaded inner circle. The monogram occupies the full field, with individual letter elements—O, T, and T—interwoven in a cruciform arrangement characteristic of Ottonian regal coinage. The surrounding outer field bears the circular imperial legend. The design reflects the established Carolingian monogram tradition adapted for Ottonian Italy.
