| Beschrijving voorzijde | Stylized church façade or cathedral building depicted in the center of the field, featuring a gabled roof and an arched portal containing a ring enclosing a central pellet. The architectural motif is rendered in a flat, schematic manner typical of Ottonian-era coinage. A circular border surrounds the central device, with a legend composed of degraded or stylized Latin characters distributed around the periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Magdeburg's archbishops gained minting rights under Otto I, who founded the see in 968 partly as a frontier institution for pushing ecclesiastical authority eastward into Slavic territory. The coins struck under this anonymous series — attributable to the archiepiscopate of Gero or Hunfried by scholarly consensus — circulated in one of the most contested commercial zones in the early eleventh-century Reich, where Saxon silver met the Baltic trade networks head-on.
The Mehl attribution places this piece within a tightly grouped die study, the anonymity of the issue being characteristic of episcopal mints that had not yet adopted the personalizing conventions more common after the Salian period.
