| Beschrijving keerzijde | Within a beaded inner circle, a plain cross with a pellet in each of the four angles, a design characteristic of French feudal obols of the late 11th and early 12th centuries. The surrounding retrograde Latin legend occupies the outer field. The flan is irregular and the strike is typical of hand-hammered medieval coinage produced at the Mâcon mint. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Philip I's reign saw the Capetian monarchy at one of its lowest points of feudal fragmentation — the king controlled little beyond the Île-de-France, and local lords struck their own coinages with near impunity. The Mâcon obol sits in that contested monetary environment: Mâcon was a county whose overlapping claims between Burgundy and the French crown made its attribution a recurring problem for medieval monetyers and modern catalogers alike.
