| Obverse description | Within a beaded border (grenetis), a cross pattée whose four angles are each cantoned by a pellet or bezant, forming a symmetrical quartered field. The legend RAIMVNDVS COMES runs around the periphery, identifying the issuing count. The die work is characteristic of Crusader hammered coinage, with irregular flan shaping typical of the period. The overall composition reflects the blending of Western European heraldic symbolism with the civic coinage traditions of the Latin East. |
