| Obverse description | The city name ARGENTINACIVITAS (Strasbourg) inscribed in two horizontal lines across the field, flanked on the left by a retrograde R and on the right by a retrograde S. The lettering is rendered in the angular, primitive style characteristic of early medieval Carolingian-Ottonian coinage. The inscription is divided by a horizontal line separating the two text registers. The overall design is stark and non-figurative, reflecting the episcopal monetary tradition of the period. |
