Denier

Obverse description	Schematic representation of a church facade or building, rendered in a highly stylized and primitive manner characteristic of 11th-century Swiss ecclesiastical coinage. The architectural motif is centrally placed within a roughly circular field, surrounded by degenerate pseudo-legends composed of imitative or meaningless letterforms that retain no legible inscription. The design is enclosed within a beaded or plain inner circle, and the overall execution reflects the crude engraving typical of abbatial hammered deniers of this period.

Reverse description	A plain cross divides the reverse field into four quarters, each containing a short horizontal stroke or wedge-shaped element, consistent with the so-called 'striped quarters' motif found on 11th-century Swiss abbatial deniers. The cross arms extend toward a surrounding border of degenerate pseudo-lettering, comprising fragmentary and imitative letter-like forms that are no longer legible as a coherent legend. The overall composition is typical of the debased ecclesiastical coinage attributed to the Fraumünster Abbey of Zurich during this period.
