| Obverse description | Frontal enthroned bishop in pontifical vestments and mitre, seated in full face on a throne, holding a sceptre surmounted by a fleur-de-lis in each hand. The figure is rendered in the flat, linear style characteristic of medieval German bracteate coinage, with drapery schematically indicated. The composition is centrally placed within the broad, thin flan typical of the bracteate format. |
