| Obverse description | A seated bishop faces forward, his right hand resting on his hip while his left hand holds a lily scepter upright. The figure is rendered in the Romanesque style characteristic of early 13th-century episcopal coinage. Two concentric circular lines frame the central effigy, with a Latin legend distributed between them around the periphery of the coin. |

| Reverse description | A frontal bust of a bishop is depicted supporting two turrets connected by an arched dome surmounted by a ring, forming a stylized architectural or ecclesiastical symbol. The composition is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with additional linear borders framing the design. The treatment is typical of Salzburg bracteate-influenced pfennig coinage of the early 13th century. |
