Beschrijving voorzijde Within a beaded inner circle, a Carolingian FR monogram incorporating a cross with a pellet at its base, rendered in interlaced letterform typical of the period. A small cross pattée surmounts the composition at the top of the inner circle. The surrounding legend, separated by a cross, reads SCI PETRI MO, an abbreviation for Monasterium Sancti Petri (Monastery of Saint Peter). The overall design is characteristic of late Carolingian ecclesiastical coinage, with the monogram referencing the Franco abbatial authority.

Aanvullende informatie

Corbie Abbey, founded in 657 AD near Amiens, held minting rights granted by Carolingian royal authority — a privilege the abbey defended fiercely through successive reigns. This issue falls within the reign of Odo of Paris, the first non-Carolingian to hold the Frankish throne, elected by the magnates in 888 following Charles the Fat's deposition. Whether Corbie's mint acknowledged Odo or continued striking under residual Carolingian sanction during this contested transition is a question the coins themselves rarely resolve cleanly.
