Obverse description Facing bust of Saint Martin rendered in a schematic Ottonian style, depicted with a staff or sceptre-like object held vertically before the figure. The bust is shown frontally within the coin's field, with the legend +MARTINVS EPISP running around the periphery, identifying the saint as bishop. The engraving is bold and stylised, characteristic of mid-11th century German ecclesiastical coinage.
