| Aversbeschreibung | Central design featuring a quatrefoil arrangement of four interlocking circles, each containing a small cross pattee, set against a plain field. The four circles are joined at the center by a central cross motif, forming an ornate fourfold composition. A beaded inner border separates the central device from the surrounding legend area. The outer margin displays a partially legible circular inscription in Romanesque lettering. The overall style is consistent with mid-12th century Austrian hammered bracteate-related coinage. |

Formbach was a small but strategically positioned county in the Inn-Salzach region, and its comital coinage from this period reflects the fragmented minting authority that characterized the German lands during the prolonged conflict between the Salian and early Hohenstaufen emperors. Ekbert II died around 1144, placing the transition to Ekbert III squarely within the turbulent years following the contested succession after Lothar III.
The "var" designation against CNA B60 is significant — Formbach issues from this dynasty are rare enough that unlisted die combinations surface regularly, and the county's line expired with Ekbert III, after which its territories passed to the Bavarian Wittelsbachs.
