| Obverse description | Central plain cross with equal arms set within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding field bears an uncial Latin legend reading GVILLE DNVS, identifying the issuing lord, William. The overall design is characteristic of feudal French hammered coinage of the late 12th century, with the legend distributed around the circumference between the inner circle and the outer beaded border. |
