| Obverse description | Frontal bust of Bishop Albert of Rethel with tonsured head turned slightly to the left, depicted in episcopal vestments and holding a fleur-de-lis scepter to the left. The effigy is rendered in the characteristic rough, stylized manner of 12th-century Mosan hammered coinage. A circular legend surrounds the central design in the field. |
