| Reverse description | Central field features a tall Latin cross standing on steps or a base, rendered in bold relief in the characteristic Beneventan tremissis tradition. The legend DOMS - CAR · RX is distributed around the periphery, referencing Charlemagne as Dominus and Rex, with the letters G - R and VIC appearing in the quarters flanking the cross. The date 1988, identifying this piece as a modern replica, is inscribed in the lower exergual area. The lettering is executed in stylized Carolingian majuscule script, and the overall composition closely follows the iconographic conventions of late 8th-century Lombard-Frankish coinage. |
