| Obverse description | Facing grotesque mask or head (Gorgoneion type) depicted in high relief at center, with large round eyes, prominent nose, and open mouth. A crescent moon appears above the head, flanked on either side by a six-pointed star in the field. Two curved branches or wings extend downward from the lower sides of the head. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with the partial legend arranged around the periphery. The overall style is characteristic of late 13th-century Swiss municipal bracteate coinage. |
