| Obverse description | Facing mitred bishop's head centered in the field, depicted frontally with a prominent episcopal mitre above and a bearded visage below. The figure is shown with hands or vestment details flanking the lower portion, rendered in low relief characteristic of hammered bracteate-style pfennig coinage. The design is set within an irregular, flan-shaped border with no surrounding legend. The style is typical of late 15th-century south German ecclesiastical coinage, bold and schematic in execution. |
