Obverse description Bracteate type struck on a thin, irregular flan with a beaded border encircling the entire circumference. Within a raised inner circle, the combined heraldic arms of Murbach, Lure, and Austria are depicted: a stylized escutcheon featuring a forked or branched charge—likely an abbatial staff or plant motif—rendered in the bold, simplified relief characteristic of small hammered coinage of the early seventeenth century. The field beyond the central device is flat and unadorned, with no legend or inscription present.
