| Reverse description | A highly stylised architectural representation of a church or cathedral facade, rendered in schematic form with a central gabled tower surmounted by a cross, flanked by subsidiary elements suggesting side aisles or towers. The structure is depicted frontally in a primitive Romanesque manner typical of episcopal deniers of the Ottonian period. The surrounding legend reads CVRIA CIV, an abbreviation for Curia Civitas (the city of Chur), identifying the mint city. The overall design is boldly struck but shows considerable die wear and flan irregularity consistent with hammered coinage of the early eleventh century. |
