| Obverse description | Frontal standing figure of an archbishop in ecclesiastical vestments, holding a crozier in the left hand and a book in the right, set within a beaded or plain inner circle. Flanking the figure are partial elements typical of Carinthian bracteate-style pfennigs, including stylized foliage or architectural motifs at the sides. The die work is characteristic of 13th-century hammered coinage, with bold but somewhat crude relief. A partial Latin legend, reading ERIACENSIS, appears around the periphery, though it is incompletely visible due to the irregular flan. The overall style reflects the episcopal coinage tradition of the Salzburg archiepiscopal sphere of influence. |
