| Obverse description | Central plain cross with expanded arms, each quadrant of the field filled with geometric bar ornaments or pellet groupings. The design is enclosed within a plain inner circle, with a fragmentary legend or decorative elements visible around the outer border. The style is characteristic of anonymous Swabian pfennig coinage of the late 11th to early 12th century, with bold, deeply struck relief typical of hammered technique. |

| Reverse description | Stylized representation of a church or cathedral facade rendered in a highly schematic, cubic architectural manner. The structure features a prominent central tower or nave with flanking elements suggestive of side aisles or towers, all depicted in a flat, diagrammatic Romanesque style. Fragmentary decorative or legendary elements appear in the outer border surrounding the architectural motif. The bold, abstract rendering is consistent with Ulm mint anonymous pfennig coinage of the circa 1100 period. |
