| Obverse description | Central cross pattée enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with a fleur-de-lis ornament in the first and fourth cantons. The legend, reading HENRICVS COMES, encircles the design within the outer field, identifying the issuer as Henry, Count of Bar. The strike is characteristically irregular, as typical of hammered medieval deniers of this period. |
