| Obverse description | Central field depicts a frontal enthroned figure, likely a seated abbess or ecclesiastical personage, rendered in a crude, archaic style characteristic of 11th-century hammered coinage. The figure is set within a broad oval or circular inner border, with the overall design exhibiting the flat, stylized relief typical of early medieval Swiss ecclesiastical issues. No legible legend is discernible on this side. The flan is irregular in shape with uneven edges, consistent with hand-struck production of the period. |
