Obverse description The obverse presents a detailed high-relief scene depicting an Inquisition tribunal: a kneeling, partially unclothed prisoner is confronted by robed ecclesiastical figures, one of whom raises a cross, while a scribe records proceedings at a draped table in the background. The composition fills the entire field with no legend, and the engravers' initials KW and OH appear in the lower exergue area.
