Obverse description Long cross with beaded arms dividing the field into four quarters, each containing a symbol or letter; the quadrants display crescent-like ornaments and what appear to be triangular or arrow-like devices. The overall design is rendered in the bold, somewhat crude relief characteristic of early medieval Austrian hammered coinage. A beaded inner circle frames the central cross motif, and the irregular flan edge bears traces of a beaded border.
