| Obverse description | Crude hammered silver denier struck at Huy, displaying a facing or slightly turned bust of Emperor Conrad II in low relief, characteristic of the rough Ottonian-Salian minting tradition. The portrait is rendered in a highly stylized manner with simplified facial features and drapery lines visible across the flan. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central effigy, reading IMP CONRADVS, identifying the issuer as Emperor Conrad. The overall execution reflects the limited die-cutting precision typical of provincial Rhenish-Mosan workshops of the early 11th century. The flan is irregular and slightly uneven, consistent with hand-struck coinage of this period. |
