| Aversbeschreibung | Facing bust of Christ, nimbed and depicted in a frontal devotional style, occupying the upper field above the large municipal shield of Cologne. The shield displays the city's heraldic arms and is rendered in bold relief characteristic of early sixteenth-century Rhenish hammered coinage. A circular Latin legend runs along the inner border of the coin's periphery, reading COLONI CIVITAS, identifying the issuing city. The overall composition reflects the late-medieval tradition of invoking sacred imagery in civic coinage, combining religious authority with municipal identity. |

Cologne's civic coinage in the early sixteenth century was entangled in a running jurisdictional dispute between the city government and the Archbishop, who held competing monetary rights over the region. By 1511 the city had effectively consolidated control over its smaller silver denominations, issuing fractional schillings through civic authority rather than ecclesiastical sanction — a distinction that mattered enormously to contemporaries and remains relevant to attribution today. The Noss reference places this piece within a tightly documented sequence.
