Obverse description Central field features a stylized architectural or crown-like motif, rendered in crude but bold relief characteristic of early medieval hammered coinage. A prominent stepped or turreted structure occupies the center, possibly representing a cathedral facade or bishop's crown, surrounded by decorative elements and pellets. The design is contained within an irregular flan with no formal border, typical of Ottonian-era ecclesiastical deniers. The overall style reflects the primitive die-cutting conventions of early 11th-century Rhenish workshops.
