| Obverse description | Crowned bust of Henry IV facing right in profile, rendered in the Ottonian-Salian style typical of late 11th-century German coinage. The effigy is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the royal crown clearly depicted atop the head. The legend encircles the bust in the outer field, with individual letters separated by pellets or crosses. The engraving is bold and schematic, characteristic of hammered regal deniers of the Salian period. |
