| Reverse description | A cruciform monogram of Emperor Lothair I, intricately composed of intersecting letters in the Carolingian tradition, set within a beaded inner circle at the center of the flan. The imperial monogram is surrounded by a peripheral legend in Latin reading around the full circumference of the coin, asserting the emperor's pious authority. The design closely mirrors the obverse layout, reflecting the dual ecclesiastical and imperial power symbolized by this joint coinage. The striking is irregular and slightly off-center, as typical of hammered Roman deniers of the mid-9th century. |
