| Obverse description | Central field features a rayed sun or star motif enclosed within a beaded inner circle, flanked by two pellets (bezants) above a crescent moon. The design is rendered in a crude, archaic hammered style characteristic of 12th-century feudal coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, partially legible due to the irregular flan. The overall composition reflects the Provençal feudal iconographic tradition associating celestial symbols with comital authority. |
