| Reverse description | A bust facing left, depicted in a schematic, linear style typical of early twelfth-century Austrian regional coinage, holding a cross-shaped scepter or processional staff upright before the figure. The bust is rendered with minimal facial detail, consistent with the crude die-cutting of the period. The design is enclosed within two concentric beaded circles, between which a deceptive pseudo-inscription imitates a formal legend without conveying readable text. |
