Obverse description Facing bust turned slightly to the left, depicting a ruler with hair swept back and rendered in stylized linear strokes, set within a double concentric circle of pellets forming the border. The effigy occupies the central field with no legend, executed in the bold, schematic manner characteristic of Austrian bracteate-influenced pfennigs of the late 12th century. The hair falls in curved strands around the face, lending a dynamic quality to the otherwise frontal presentation.
