| Obverse description | Plain cross with equal arms occupying the central field, set within a beaded inner circle. The cross divides the coin into four quadrants. The surrounding legend reads ✠ TVRONVS CIVI (City of Tours), partially visible along the outer border. The strike is characteristic of 12th-century hammered billon coinage, showing irregular flan shape and variable relief. |
