Reverse description Reverse bearing a stacked multi-line Latin legend arranged horizontally across the field, reading ME / NS / EO / OCTVB / R, denoting the month of October. The inscription is presented in a tiered format without a central image, framed by dotted borders above and below, consistent with the epigraphic reverse type used on Salernitan follari of this reign. The lettering is bold but irregularly spaced due to the hammered production technique.
