| Obverse description | Crowned frontal bust of Philip of Swabia at center, flanked by two six-pointed stars, set within an elaborate arcaded border of eight arches — four containing small crowned busts in profile and four enclosing stars. The overall composition is arranged in a radial pattern typical of Hohenstaufen-era bracteate-influenced coinage, with the architectural arcade framing rendered in bold relief on the irregularly flan. |
