Obverse description A pattée cross occupies the central field, with a pellet or small dot placed in each of the four angles formed by the arms of the cross. The design is executed in the simple, bold style characteristic of Carolingian-influenced feudal coinage. A circular legend surrounds the central cross motif, separated by a beaded or dotted inner border. The overall composition is typical of the hammered feudal deniers struck in southern France during the eleventh century.

Reverse description The reverse features a central circular motif from which radiate decorative elements, with three upright strokes (I's) and three pellets distributed around the central ring in alternating positions, creating a stylized pattern. The arrangement is characteristic of feudal southern French coinage, reflecting a degenerate or abstracted architectural or monogram type. A surrounding legend in debased Latin lettering encircles the design within a beaded border, consistent with the irregular striking typical of hammered medieval deniers.
