Beschrijving voorzijde Carolingian royal monogram of Charles occupies the central field, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The monogram, composed of interlaced letters forming the name KAROLUS in the Carolingian tradition, is rendered in low relief typical of hammered coinage of this period. A circular Latin legend reading ✠ GRΛTIΛ D-I IX surrounds the beaded circle, invoking the king's rule by divine grace. The flan is irregular in shape with characteristic uneven edges consistent with hand-hammered Carolingian silver coinage.

Beschrijving keerzijde A plain cross with arms extending nearly to the inner beaded circle occupies the central field, a device characteristic of Carolingian ecclesiastical civic coinage. The cross is contained within a beaded circle, with the quadrants of the field left plain; on certain varieties (Nouchy #158) a pellet appears in one quarter. The surrounding circular legend ✠ METTIS CIVITΛS identifies the issuing city of Metz, the prominent episcopal mint of Lotharingia. The reverse design follows the standard Carolingian formula established under Louis the Pious and perpetuated through the reigns of Charles II and Charles III.
