| Obverse description | Stylized bust of Emperor Henry II facing right, rendered in the crude but expressive Ottonian hammered style typical of early 11th-century Rhenish coinage. The effigy is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the imperial legend distributed around the periphery of the flan. The portrait displays schematic facial features with a pronounced nose and chin, characteristic of the period's die-engraving conventions. The surrounding legend reads HEINRICVS INPERA, identifying the issuer as Emperor Henry. |
