| Obverse description | Full-length enthroned figure of the Archbishop in frontal view, depicted in episcopal vestments and seated upon an ornate throne. The right hand raises a crozier, while the left hand holds a staff surmounted by a double cross. The design is executed in the shallow single-sided relief characteristic of bracteate coinage, with fine linear detailing typical of late 12th-century German ecclesiastical numismatic art. |
