Beschrijving voorzijde Central field occupied by a Carolingian-style monogram of PRV (for Provincia Viennensis), composed of interlaced letters in bold relief, enclosed within a plain inner circle. The monogram is executed in the characteristic interlace style of late tenth-century episcopal coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the inner circle, reading outward toward the beaded or rope-pattern border of the coin's irregular flan. The overall design reflects the Carolingian epigraphic tradition maintained by the archbishops of Vienne into the late tenth century.

Aanvullende informatie

Theobald was Archbishop of Vienne from 970 until his death in 1001, and this denier falls within the narrow window when Rudolph III — the last independent king of Burgundy — held the throne. Rudolph's reign was marked by steady erosion of royal authority to local magnates and ecclesiastical lords, and archbishops like Theobald were among the primary beneficiaries, exercising regalian minting rights as genuine autonomous powers rather than royal delegates.

Rudolph died without legitimate heirs in 1032, after which Burgundy passed to the Holy Roman Empire under Conrad II.
