Reverse description Abbreviated votive legend in large, boldly struck capital letters occupying the central field, reading SCI GAV in reference to Saint Gaugericus, patron of the abbey of Cambrai. A horizontal bar appears above the inscription, mirroring the obverse design convention. The legend fills the flan with a border of pellets around the periphery, consistent with the hammered fabric of Carolingian ecclesiastical deniers.
