| Obverse description | Within a lozenge-shaped frame, a stylized eagle displayed with spread wings occupies the upper portion of the design, rendered in low relief in the characteristic Friesach bracteate tradition. Below the eagle, a clasp or brooch motif with leaf-shaped or trilobate ends is prominently depicted at the center of the lozenge. The overall composition is set within a plain inner border formed by the diamond-shaped framing device, with the flan exhibiting the typical irregular, ragged edge of hammered medieval coinage. |
