| Reverse description | Schematic depiction of a tower-shaped architectural structure, likely representing the fortified city of Verdun, rendered in the abstract Romanesque style common to 11th-century ecclesiastical coinage of the region. The building motif serves as a civic emblem of the episcopal mint city. The surrounding legend VRBS CLAVORVM — the Latin name for Verdun (Virodunum/Clarum) — encircles the design, affirming the mint's identity. The overall execution is bold but simplified, consistent with hammered coinage of this era. |
