| Obverse description | Facing bust of a ruler depicted in a schematic, stylized manner characteristic of late medieval German bracteate-influenced coinage. The figure wears a flat-topped crowned headpiece and displays flowing hair falling to either side of the face. The facial features — eyes, nose, and mouth — are rendered in a bold, crude relief typical of hammered Pfennig coinage of the Upper Palatinate. The bust is shown from the shoulders upward, centered in the field, with no surrounding legend. The flan is irregular and the surface shows the characteristic texture of hand-struck silver. |
