| Obverse description | A plain long cross divides the coin into four quarters, with a pellet positioned in the third angle. The surrounding circular legend reads the name and title of the issuer in Latin characters. The overall fabric is irregular and typical of medieval feudal hammered coinage, with a beaded border encircling the design. |

| Reverse description | The reverse field features the letters M and T arranged on two lines, serving as a monogram or abbreviated reference to the mint. The surrounding circular legend names the city of Carcassonne in a characteristic Romanesque feudal lettering style. The strike is irregular with a beaded outer border, consistent with hammered deniers of 12th-century southern France. |
