Obverse lettering ✠ HLOTΛRIVS IMP
(Translation: Emperor Lothair.)
Reverse description The reverse field carries the mint or territorial designation arranged in two horizontal lines across the coin's center, a layout characteristic of Carolingian deniers and obols of this period. The legend is rendered in capital Latin letters with the distinctive use of reversed or uncial letterforms common to ninth-century Aquitanian issues. The flan edges are chipped and irregular, and surface corrosion partially obscures portions of the inscription. No additional decorative elements or border devices are present beyond the lettering itself.
