| Reverse description | The reverse field displays the letters D, A, and S arranged around a small central cross, serving as a monogram or abbreviated reference to Saint Amans, patron saint of Rodez. Globular and letter elements are scattered across the field, framed by a peripheral Latin legend within a beaded border. The flan is irregular and typical of hammered feudal coinage. The overall design reflects the abbreviated devotional and civic iconography common to 12th-century southern French feudal obols. |
