| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly stylised architectural or monogram motif occupying the central field, likely a schematic rendering of a church facade or a Karolingian-derived temple type with triangular pediment and columnar base, a type associated with Regensburg ecclesiastical coinage. Flanking elements and geometric ornaments fill the surrounding field. The outer legend, in angular Latin capitals of characteristically crude late medieval hammered execution, encircles the central design. The overall composition is typical of Bavarian deniers struck under Henry IV at the Regensburg mint during the late Ottonian period. |
