Comment of The Bru Sale about this coin: ''Apparently unique mule between Charlemagne’s obverse and Pepin the Short’s reverse for Geneva. A new type, possibly the first Charlemagne issue for this city. Of the highest rarity.''.
The two horizontal lines above the letter A on the reverse are difficult to identify given the state of the coin, decorative lines or something else? The letter V on the obverse, described as an inverted A, may have this appearance due to a die break.
