| Beschrijving voorzijde | Shield bearing the Rietberg eagle displayed, facing sinister, with spread wings and stylized plumage rendered in the late medieval Gothic manner. The eagle fills the shield field almost entirely, with the shield itself occupying the central area of the flan. No legend or inscription is present. The strike is irregular, characteristic of hammered bracteate-related small coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Conrad IV of Rietberg held the Bishopric of Osnabrück from 1482 until his death in 1497, a tenure marked by persistent conflict with the city of Osnabrück over jurisdictional rights — tensions that had plagued the see for generations. The Vierling, a fractional pfennig denomination, was produced in quantity by smaller north German ecclesiastical mints precisely because petty coinage was chronically scarce in daily market transactions. At 0.17g, these pieces were struck on the thinnest flans the dies could reliably catch.
