| Reverse description | A highly stylized figure of Victory standing to the right, rendered in the debased Merovingian style characteristic of late 6th-century Frankish tremisses, holding a long cross before her. The figure's drapery and limbs are reduced to schematic linear forms. The mint legend VEROMANDIS·CIΛITV encircles the design, identifying the issuing city of Vermand (Civitas Veromandensis) in modern northern France. The reverse design ultimately derives from late Roman imperial prototypes but is considerably abstracted in execution. |
