| Aversbeschreibung | Diademed bust of the bishop facing right, with a crozier placed before the effigy. The figure is rendered in the schematic, flat style characteristic of 11th-century episcopal coinage from the Meuse valley. A partial Latin legend surrounds the design, largely obscured by the irregular flan and worn dies. The overall composition reflects the episcopal authority of Prince-Bishop Théoduin of Liège. |

| Reversbeschreibung | Frontal nimbate bust of the Virgin Mary, rendered in the crude but iconographically significant style typical of Mosan ecclesiastical coinage of the mid-11th century. The nimbus encircles the head, emphasizing the sacred character of the representation. The design occupies the majority of the flan, with details softened by wear and the irregular hammered planchet. This Marian effigy reflects the dedication of the cathedral chapter of Huy to the Virgin. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Théoduin of Bavaria was appointed Bishop of Liège in 1048 by Henry III, Holy Roman Emperor — a textbook example of Ottonian-era imperial church politics, where the episcopate functioned as an extension of royal administration. Liège's minting rights were well-established by this point, but Théoduin's reign saw the prince-bishopric consolidate its temporal authority in the Meuse valley against competing local lords.
Huy, rather than Liège itself, was the striking location — the town held a distinct mint tradition within the bishopric's territory.
