Reverse description Full-length standing figures of Emperor Heinrich II (Henry II) and Saint Kunigunde depicted facing, jointly holding a model of Bamberg Cathedral between them. A small shield bearing the Limpurg arms appears in the lower field beneath the figures. The scene reflects the standard iconographic program of Bamberg episcopal gold coinage, invoking the see's imperial founders as patron saints.
