| Reverse description | Mint name legend REM, denoting Reims, displayed in large, widely spaced capital letters in the central field, surmounted by a horizontal bar and with a small cross motif below. The letters are formed in the bulbous, bead-terminated Carolingian style characteristic of Pepin's deniers, set within a beaded border that follows the irregular contour of the flan. The overall design is bold and schematic, consistent with the early Carolingian monetary reform coinage. |
