Obverse description A plain Latin cross occupies the center of the coin within a beaded inner circle, the arms of the cross reaching nearly to the border. The surrounding field bears a continuous circumscribed legend in uncial characters running between the inner beaded circle and the outer toothed border. The overall design is characteristic of the Anglo-Gascon feudal coinage tradition, with the cross motif serving as the primary device in the manner of contemporary gros tournois-derived issues.
