| Obverse description | Central field features a stylized cross or cruciform motif enclosed within a beaded or dotted inner circle, surrounded by a braided or rope-like outer border typical of early medieval German coinage. The design is rendered in a primitive, high-relief hammered style consistent with 11th-century Swabian workshop production. The retrograde legend PERCTOLT, referring to Duke Berthold I of Zähringen, runs around the periphery of the coin. The overall flan is irregular and slightly cupped, as is characteristic of hand-struck deniers of this period. |
