| Opis awersu |
Crude hammered design depicting a frontal bust of Bishop Theodorich in pontifical vestments, rendered in the simplified Romanesque style characteristic of 11th-century Germanic ecclesiastical coinage. The figure appears mitred or crowned, with schematic facial features and drapery indicated by irregular raised lines. The surrounding legend reads T HE DE RIOCI, distributed around the central effigy in retrograde or abbreviated Latin. The flan is irregular and slightly uneven, typical of thin hammered bracteate-style pfennigs of the period. |

| Opis rewersu |
The reverse presents a highly stylised architectural motif, likely representing the facade or gatehouse of Basel Cathedral or a fortified ecclesiastical structure, rendered in the primitive graphic idiom of Ottonian-Salian coinage. The building is depicted frontally with schematic towers or turrets and a central portal suggested by raised relief elements. The legend BA SI LEA, the Latin name for Basel, is distributed around the architectural device in segmented form. The flan exhibits the characteristic thinness and irregular outline of the Dünnpfennig denomination, with die-striking somewhat off-centre. |
