| Reverse description | A stylized architectural temple or church facade depicted in frontal elevation, featuring a prominent triangular pediment supported by multiple columns, with a stepped base below. The structure is rendered in a schematic, flat manner consistent with Carolingian and early Norman monetary tradition, evoking the cathedral or mint building at Rouen. The surrounding legend reads ROTOMΛGVS, the Latin name for Rouen, identifying the mint city. The overall composition reflects the standard temple-type reverse widely employed on Norman ducal deniers of the 10th century. |
