| Beschrijving voorzijde | Within the field, the monogram letters R and P are displayed prominently in large, bold characters beneath a horizontal bar occupying the upper portion of the flan. The letters, formed in a crude but confident hand typical of early Carolingian hammered coinage, are arranged side by side and fill the available field. A small pellet is visible to the lower right of the monogram. No portrait appears; the design is entirely epigraphic in character, reflecting the transitional monetary style of Pepin the Short's reign. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Pépin III — the first Carolingian king, who deposed the last Merovingian in 751 with papal sanction — reformed Frankish coinage around 755, shifting authority over minting away from autonomous ecclesiastical and aristocratic moneyers toward royal control. The attribution "in the name of Robert" reflects a transitional reality: local moneyers still signed their output, a practice Charlemagne would later suppress entirely. Which Robert issued under Pépin's authority remains unresolved — the name was common among Frankish nobility of the period, and no single identification commands scholarly consensus.
