| Obverse description | Frontal crowned bust of Emperor Conrad II at center, rendered in the schematic Ottonian-Salian hammered style, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The imperial effigy is depicted facing, wearing a crown, with stylized drapery indicated by incised lines. A circular legend reading +CHVONRADVS IMP surrounds the central device, proclaiming the emperor's title. The overall composition is characteristic of early 11th-century German episcopal mint coinage, with bold if somewhat crude die-cutting. |
