| Reverse description | Central device consists of a plain cross pattée set within a beaded inner circle, a design emblematic of Angevin feudal coinage of Provence. The cross divides the inner field into four equal quadrants and is rendered in bold, slightly irregular relief consistent with hammered production. An outer Latin legend reading ✠ COMES PROVINCIE encircles the beaded ring, proclaiming Charles's title as Count of Provence. The overall composition follows the standard denier format of the period, with the cross serving as the dominant reverse type across Angevin issues. |
