| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a bold cross pattee dividing the flan into four quadrants, each containing a combination of letters and pellets rendered in a crude but characteristic early medieval hammered style. The cross arms are broad and flat, with small wedge-shaped terminals. Scattered annulets and pellets fill the inter-quadrant spaces, reflecting the decorative conventions of Ottonian-era episcopal coinage. The irregular flan edge is typical of hand-struck Salzburg deniers of the early eleventh century. The overall design is schematic and non-figural, consistent with contemporary ecclesiastical issues of the Bavarian region. |
