| Obverse description | Central field depicts a stylized architectural motif resembling a temple or palace façade, rendered in the crude Romanesque manner typical of early Capetian coinage. The structure features a prominent vertical element flanked by lateral extensions, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. A cross pattée appears above the central device. The circumferential legend reads PHLIPVS REX D-I, identifying the issuer as King Philip I of France, separated by a cross at the outset. The overall style is characteristic of hammered billon deniers of the late 11th century, with irregular flan and weak areas of strike. |
