| Obverse description | Frontal standing figure of a bishop in full pontifical vestments, wearing a mitre and holding a long crozier in the left hand and a cross-staff or sceptre in the right hand. The figure is rendered in the flat, stylized Romanesque manner typical of early 13th-century Friesacher Pfennig coinage. A partial Latin legend reading (EBERHA)-RDS EPS surrounds the design, identifying the issuing bishop. The flan is irregular and slightly squared at the edges, characteristic of hammered medieval bracteate-related pfennig production. |
