| Reverse description | A stylized hand issuing from above, positioned over a cross, a composition denoting divine authority common in Ottonian ecclesiastical coinage. The Greek letters Alpha (Α) and Omega (ω) appear above the cross, symbolizing the beginning and the end as an expression of Christian theology. Two stars are placed in the lower field flanking the cross. The design is boldly if crudely struck, with elements arranged in a formal, hierarchical manner consistent with 11th-century episcopal mint production. |
