| Beschrijving keerzijde | Stylized architectural facade depicting a building with two flanking towers rising above a central rounded arch, a conventional Romanesque representation of the Cathedral of Utrecht rendered in the schematic idiom typical of episcopal deniers of this period. The towers are shown with simplified ornamental detail, and the archway beneath suggests the cathedral's principal entrance. The legend TRAIECTVM, preceded by a cross, encircles the architectural motif and identifies the mint city of Utrecht. The overall composition is symmetrical and framed by a beaded border, consistent with Lower Rhenish hammered coinage of the late eleventh century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Conrad of Swabia was appointed Bishop of Utrecht in 1076 by Henry IV — the same year the Pope excommunicated the emperor at Canossa. Utrecht's mint operated under direct imperial grant, and the bishop's coinage authority was inseparable from the political machinery of the Investiture Controversy. Conrad's tenure placed him squarely in the imperial camp throughout that conflict.
Ilisch's cataloguing of this type as NL1#10.19 reflects the systematic die-study work that has made Low Countries medieval coinage progressively better documented over the past three decades.
