| Obverse description | Full-length frontal effigy of a bishop in pontifical vestments, holding a crozier in his right hand. The figure is rendered in a flat, stylised Romanesque manner characteristic of late 13th-century German ecclesiastical coinage. A patriarchal cross appears above the bishop's head. A partial legend is visible along the right margin of the coin. |
