| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a large patriarchal or eight-pointed cross with extended arms reaching toward the coin's irregular hammered edge, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The four quadrants formed by the cross arms each contain a pellet or small ornamental device. The ruler's name is inscribed in uncial Latin letters divided across the four quadrants of the outer field, reading ME / IN / AR / DVS (MEINARDVS), referencing Count Meinhard II of Tyrol. The overall style is characteristic of late 13th-century Tirolean bracteate-influenced coinage, with bold, deeply struck relief on a thin flan. |
