| Reverse description | Central field features a stylized frontal bust or head of Saint Quentin, rendered in a schematic Romanesque manner with visible facial features, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend reads ✠ SCS QVINTINVS, invoking Saint Quentin, the patron saint of the eponymous mint city. The overall design follows the standard feudal denier convention of the County of Vermandois, with the saint's image serving as the reverse type in conformity with regional ecclesiastical coinage traditions of the 12th century. |
