| Reverse description | Bust of a bishop shown facing, rendered in Romanesque style, with his hands raised and supporting a stylized architectural structure above his head comprising a central dome flanked by two towers. The composition is a schematic representation of a cathedral or church facade, a common hagiographic device on medieval Austrian ecclesiastical coinage. The bishop's vestments are indicated by simple linear engraving. The reverse field is plain with no surviving legible legend, consistent with the type as catalogued under CNA Cr28. |
