| Reversbeschreibung | Central field dominated by a plain cross pattee with expanded terminals, dividing the field into four quarters, a design common to Carolingian-influenced episcopal deniers of the region. The cross is rendered in bold, slightly uneven relief typical of hammered coinage of the early eleventh century. A circular Latin legend surrounds the cross, reading + AALGODVS EPssS, identifying the issuing bishop Adalgodus II as episcopal authority. The overall composition follows established conventions of Rhenish and Burgundian ecclesiastical coinage of the period, with the legend running close to the edge of the irregularly shaped flan. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Adalgodus II held the bishopric of Geneva from roughly 1025 until his death around 1044, during a period when the bishop functioned as the effective secular authority over the city following the dissolution of Burgundian royal power after Rudolph III died without heirs in 1032. The Kingdom of Burgundy passed to Conrad II of the Holy Roman Empire that year, but coinage rights in Geneva remained with the bishop — a jurisdictional arrangement that would persist, with interruptions, for centuries.
The HMZ 1#1-288a attribution places this among the earliest documented episcopal issues from Geneva.
