| Reverse description | A plain cross dividing the reverse into four cantons, each containing a pellet, forming a cross-and-pellet design typical of Ottonian-era episcopal coinage. The surrounding legend CVRIA CIVITAS, identifying the city of Chur (Curia), is distributed around the cross in rough, irregular Latin capitals. The flan is irregular and of variable thickness, consistent with hand-hammered production. The overall style reflects the primitive but purposeful die work of early 11th-century Swiss episcopal mints. |
