| Obverse description | Facing crowned bust of Emperor Henry IV with a bearded visage, depicted in a frontal, stylized Romanesque manner typical of 11th-century Germanic coinage. The king holds a scepter or lance to the left and a quatrefoil ornament appears to the right of the bust. A beaded inner circle frames the central device, with the royal legend arranged around the periphery in Latin characters. The portrait is rendered with bold, simplified relief characteristic of hammered medieval pfennig coinage. |
