| Reverse description | A double-gated fortified wall occupies the central field, rendered in a stylised architectural manner typical of medieval episcopal coinage. Rising above the wall at center is a palm tree, a symbol of ecclesiastical authority and the Holy Land. To the left of the palm tree, a cross is depicted above a six-pointed star, while to the right a bishop's bust is shown in profile, alluding to the issuing see of Salzburg. The entire design is enclosed within a double beaded circle, consistent with the decorative border conventions of early thirteenth-century Austrian hammered coinage. |
