| Descrizione del dritto |
Central Chrism monogram (XP Christogram) flanked by the Greek letters Alpha (Α) and Omega (ω), symbolizing Christ as the beginning and end. The monogram is rendered in bold relief within the irregular flan, characteristic of early medieval hammered coinage. The field is plain, with the sacred symbols occupying the full face of the coin. The inscription reads A XPC ω in crude Latin lettering around or integrated with the central device. |

| Descrizione del rovescio |
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. |
