| Obverse description | Facing eagle displayed in a bold, schematic style characteristic of mid-13th century Germanic bracteate coinage. The bird features a large rounded head with a strongly curved beak, a broad compact body, and prominent splayed claws rendered in a stylized, almost heraldic manner. The wings are depicted as thick parallel strokes flanking the body, rising to either side. The entire design is set within a beaded border following the irregular flan edge, with no legend or inscription in the field. |
