| Obverse description | Frontal facing angel figure with wings spread to either side, rendered in a schematic Romanesque style. The figure adopts the orans posture, with arms raised and hands extended outward in a gesture of supplication or blessing. Beneath the angel, a large stylized rose or rosette fills the lower portion of the field, its petals rendered in low relief. No legend or inscription accompanies the design. The flan is irregular and slightly ragged at the edges, characteristic of hammered medieval coinage. |
