| Obverse description | Armored knight on horseback facing right, depicted in a stylized medieval manner characteristic of 13th-century feudal coinage. The mounted figure is rendered in relief within a beaded inner border that encircles the entire design. The horse is shown in full stride, with the rider appearing to carry arms. The execution is typical of hammered medieval deniers, with an irregular flan and somewhat crude but expressive die work. |
