| Obverse description | Stylized three-towered castle depicted in relief at center, rendered in a schematic architectural style characteristic of medieval billon coinage. A small annulet appears above the central tower, and two pellets flank the castle to the left and right in the field. The design is contained within a plain inner circle, with the whole set on an irregular flan typical of hammered coinage of this period. No legend or inscription is present. |
