| Obverse description | Central field dominated by the bold monogram 'R·P' (Rex Pipinus — King Pepin), formed by large capital letters with a horizontal bar surmounting the composition. A series of prominent pellets is arranged around and between the letters, with a single pellet centered above the crossbar. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border typical of early Carolingian coinage, imparting a characteristic archaic and robust appearance to the flan. |
