| Reverse description | Hammered field displaying the mint abbreviation in large, boldly struck Latin letters beneath a horizontal bar, with a single pellet positioned below the legend. The letters A, Q, and S occupy the central field, serving as the abbreviated toponym for Aquis (Dax), identifying the issuing mint. The execution is characteristically rough and irregular, consistent with the provincial hammered coinage of the Frankish realm during the reign of Pepin the Short. |
