| Reverse description | Within a beaded inner circle, a stylized depiction of a three-towered church or gate facade, with a central taller tower flanked by two shorter lateral towers, representing the Abbey of Quedlinburg. The architectural motif is rendered in the simplified, schematic style characteristic of Ottonian ecclesiastical coinage. The circumscription +QVIDLINGB, an abbreviation for Quedlinburg, appears in the outer field as the mint and issuing authority legend. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, consistent with hand-hammered production of the period. |
