| Reverse description | The reverse displays a three-line Latin legend distributed across the field, reading NO / VINO / MO, a contracted form of NOVIOMO or NOVIOMAGO, the Latin name for Noyon, identifying the mint of issue. The letters are large, boldly cut, and fill the flan in the characteristic Carolingian epigraphic style of the period. A partial beaded border is visible along portions of the irregular flan edge. The overall die execution is coarse and typical of provincial Carolingian mint production under Pepin the Short. |
