| Obverse description | Central field depicts a stylized temple or cathedral facade in high relief, featuring a pitched roof with a cross at its apex and three rounded arches supported by columns below. A small ring or annulet appears beneath the temple, flanked by two dots, all set within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend in uncial Latin script reads + SEDES LAVSANE, referencing the episcopal see of Lausanne. The overall design is characteristic of medieval ecclesiastical billon coinage, struck on an irregularly shaped flan with typical hammered die production. |
