| Reverse description | Schematic frontal view of the city of Cologne rendered as a fortified architectural facade, depicting towers, gates, and crenellated walls in the stylised Romanesque convention common to imperial and ecclesiastical deniers of the period. A central structure, likely representing the Cathedral or a church, rises prominently above the city gate, surmounted by a decorative finial. Flanking the cityscape are stylised vegetal or foliate elements. A beaded inner border encircles the design, with the Latin legend distributed around the outer margin invoking Cologne as the holy mother of peace. |
