Reverse description Central field features a stylized temple or church facade motif — a characteristic architectural representation associated with Capetian royal deniers — rendered in angular, schematic relief within a beaded inner circle. The structure displays a triangular pediment above a simple nave form, consistent with the conventional 'chatel' type of the period. A cross pattee introduces the circumferential Latin legend, which reads CATR MOONTR, a contracted form identifying the mint of Montreuil-sur-Mer. The execution is characteristically rough, reflecting the hammered technique and debased billon composition of the coinage.
