Obverse description Enthroned bishop or ecclesiastical figure shown facing, rendered in the Romanesque style characteristic of early 13th-century Friesach coinage. The figure is depicted seated frontally, wearing liturgical vestments, with arms extended and holding attributes of office. A circular legend surrounds the central effigy, partially legible, reading +EBER[HARDSE] PS, likely referencing the issuing bishop Eberhard. The flan is irregular and the die-work is bold but somewhat crude, typical of hammered provincial coinage of this period.
