Obverse description Central field occupied by a bold Henrician imperial monogram (H) in high relief, executed in the angular, architectonic style characteristic of Ottonian-Salian coinage. The monogram is enclosed within a partial inner circle or arc, with the surrounding field bearing a circular Latin legend. The die-cutting is robust and schematic, reflecting the hammered workshop tradition of the Lucca mint in the early eleventh century.
