(Translation: Of Saint-Maurice.)
Reverse description A cross pattée, its four arms terminating in globular jewels or pellets, occupies the central field. The cross is set within a stylized laurel or beaded wreath tied at the base with ribbon-like ties, a common decorative convention on Merovingian tremisses. The moneyer's name BERTE MIN is disposed around the cross in the field, identifying the coin's issuer as Bertemindus. The overall composition is typical of ecclesiastical Merovingian issues, combining Christian iconography with the moneyer's attribution.
