| Reverse description | Stylized schematic representation of a church or cathedral facade rendered in a highly abstracted architectural manner, featuring a central tower or portal flanked by subsidiary elements suggestive of nave walls and towers, consistent with the Ottonian episcopal coinage tradition. The building motif is executed in bold relief with simplified, almost hieroglyphic forms. A circular legend surrounds the architectural device, reading +ADELRIC. The overall composition is centrally placed on the irregularly shaped flan. |
