Reverse description A retrograde or irregularly arranged Latin inscription fills the field in multiple lines, reading TREVERIS or an abbreviated form thereof, denoting the mint city of Trier. The lettering is arranged in a roughly circular pattern within a beaded border, a typical layout for Carolingian deniers of this period. The crude, somewhat angular letterforms reflect the hand-struck nature of the issue and the workshop style of the Trier mint under Pepin the Short.
