| Reverse description | Central device depicting a stylized boat or ship viewed from the side, with a prominently rendered hull in the lower portion and a superstructure of three tall vertical elements — likely representing a church façade or gatehouse — rising from the vessel's deck, consistent with a schematic representation of the Cathedral of Speyer. The composition is boldly struck in high relief relative to the thin flan. The surrounding Latin legend reads + NEMETIS CIVITAS, the Roman and medieval Latin name for the city of Speyer. The design exemplifies the Salian imperial mint type associating royal authority with major episcopal cities along the Rhine. |
