| Obverse description | A bold capital letter T, serving as an abbreviation for Tunsberg (the royal mint city), struck in relief at the center of the field and enclosed within a raised circular border. The flan is of irregular octagonal form, characteristic of the thin hammered bracteate technique, with the design impressed from a single die. The overall execution is typical of Norwegian medieval coinage of the early 13th century, with minimal ornamentation beyond the central monogram and its encircling ring. |
