Obverse description Central design featuring the letters V and O flanking a raised triangle, all set within a beaded inner circle. The arrangement of these geometric elements is characteristic of early medieval feudal coinage from the Languedoc region. The surrounding circular legend reads in Latin, identifying Roger as viscount, introduced by a cross pattée. The fields are heavily worn and the flan is irregular, consistent with hand-struck hammered production of the period.

Reverse description A plain Greek cross with broad arms occupies the central field, with a single pellet placed in each of the four angles between the arms, all contained within a beaded inner circle. The cross design is bold and deeply struck, typical of eleventh-century feudal deniers. The surrounding circular legend in Latin names Peter (Raymond), introduced by a cross pattée. The flan is irregular and slightly clipped at the edges, as is common for hammered coinage of this era.
