| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse displays the ruler's name LVDOVVIC (Ludovicus, i.e. Louis) inscribed in two horizontal lines across the field in incuse hammered Latin lettering, with the text reading 'LVDO' on the upper line and 'VVIC' on the lower line. The characters are rendered in the angular, monumental Carolingian epigraphic style typical of early ninth-century Frankish coinage. No effigy or portrait is present, the design being purely epigraphic in tradition consistent with the Temple-type Carolingian reformed coinage. The flat, unadorned field frames the legend without border or inner circle. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a plain Greek cross with a single pellet positioned in the lower angle, set within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding circular legend PISTIANA REI, referencing the Christian religion (Christiana Religio), runs along the outer border in hammered Latin capitals. The cross is boldly struck at center, its arms extending nearly to the inner circle, with the pellet serving as the sole decorative element within the angles. The composition reflects the devout religious iconography characteristic of Louis I's early monetary reform coinage. |
