| Obverse description | Half-length frontal effigy of a bishop wearing a mitra, rendered in a simplified Romanesque style characteristic of early 13th-century German bracteate coinage. The figure holds a crozier with a curved volute in the left hand and a palm branch in the right. The face is depicted frontally with stylized features, framed by the episcopal vestments adorned with decorative pellet ornaments at the neckline. The central design is set within a raised concentric border, with a scalloped or lobed outer rim encircling the entire coin field. |
