| Obverse description | Central plain cross extending to the inner border, dividing the field into four quarters. The legend, reading + RAIMVNDVS, is struck in Latin characters along the periphery, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The flan is irregular and slightly convex, characteristic of medieval hammered coinage. The die-work is bold but somewhat crude, consistent with feudal provincial minting practice of the 12th to 13th century. |

| Reverse description | Central design composed of two cruciform annulets and two small crosses arranged symmetrically to form a composite cross pattern in the field. The peripheral legend, reading + DE TVRENA, is struck in Latin characters and enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The overall design is typical of feudal Limousin coinage, with bold but irregularly struck lettering on an uneven hammered flan. |
