| Beschrijving keerzijde | A bold Latin cross in raised relief occupies the central field, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The letter S appears in the first and fourth angles of the cross, while a triangle ornament is placed in the third angle, forming a distinctive decorative arrangement characteristic of the Beauvais mint type. A circular Latin legend surrounds the beaded border, identifying the issuing city. The flan exhibits the irregular outline and variable strike typical of Carolingian hammered silver coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ralph (Raoul) of Burgundy seized the West Frankish throne in 923 after the deposition of Charles the Simple, who remained imprisoned until his death in 929. The Beauvais mint had operated under Carolingian royal authority for decades, and coinage struck there during Ralph's reign reflects the administrative continuity his court was anxious to project — a king of disputed legitimacy leaning hard on established minting infrastructure to signal royal normalcy.
The Type 1 classification distinguishes this issue from later die variants documented by Prou and Gariel, placing it among the earliest strikes of the reign.
