背面描述	Four annulets arranged symmetrically in the quarters of the inner circle, forming a quatrefoil-like device within a beaded border. The surrounding legend runs in the outer field in a manner typical of southern French feudal coinage of the early twelfth century. The flan is irregular and the relief is low, consistent with the hammered technique employed for small billon fractions of this period.

附加信息	Aimery II ruled Narbonne during a period when viscounty coinage in Languedoc was asserting itself against both Aragonese pressure from the south and the competing monetary authority of the Archbishop of Narbonne, who held ecclesiastical jurisdiction over the city and periodically disputed the secular lord's minting rights. The billon obol — the half-denier — was the workhorse of small market transactions, and viscounty-level issues at this denomination are substantially rarer in surviving collections than their denier counterparts, worn to illegibility or simply never catalogued by Poey d'Avant.
