| Beschrijving voorzijde | A plain cross with splayed terminals occupies the central field, enclosed within a raised beaded inner circle. The surrounding annular legend, rendered in large Carolingian capital letters, reads PIPINVS REX EQ, identifying Pepin as King of the Aquitains. The lettering is boldly struck and fills the outer field between the beaded circle and the irregular coin edge. The overall design follows the standard Carolingian denier typology established under the reforms of Pepin the Short and Charlemagne. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Pépin II of Aquitaine spent much of his reign as a contested ruler, fighting Frankish royal authority rather than exercising it cleanly. Charles the Bald had him captured and confined to a monastery in 852, but during the window this coin represents, Pépin still held enough of Aquitaine to operate a mint at Poitiers — one of the region's most administratively significant centers under Carolingian organization. The Poitiers mint output from this precise period is sparse, making attributable survivors genuinely uncommon.
