| Obverse description | Within a raised inner circle, a bold cross divides the field into four quarters, each containing two pellets arranged symmetrically, producing a distinctive eight-pellet composition. The cross arms are rendered in high relief characteristic of Ottonian hammered coinage. A circular raised border frames the central device, with the Latin royal legend distributed around the outer field between the border and the coin's irregular rim. |
