Beschrijving voorzijde A plain inner circle encloses a heraldic shield bearing the arms of the Archbishopric of Trier: a plain cross occupying the dexter and base of the shield, with a six-pointed star in the upper sinister canton. The shield is rendered in a simple, bold style characteristic of late medieval hammered bracteate coinage. No legend or inscription is present. The design is contained within a double or raised border at the coin's periphery.

Beschrijving keerzijde Uniface issue struck in bracteate style; the reverse presents a flat, incuse mirror impression of the obverse design with no independent devices, legends, or inscriptions, consistent with the thin billon heller coinage of the Rhenish archbishoprics in the early fifteenth century.

Aanvullende informatie

Otto von Ziegenhain held the archbishopric from 1418 until his death in 1430, a tenure marked by his aggressive involvement in the Hussite crisis and his role in organizing Catholic resistance in the Rhineland. The heller denomination circulating under his authority was among the smallest practical units in the region's currency hierarchy — billon issues of this type handled the everyday transactions that silver pfennigs were too valuable to absorb efficiently.
