| Reverse description | Central design features a stylized Romanesque church or cathedral facade in high relief, with a prominent triangular gabled roof, arched portal, and flanking towers, rendered schematically in the early medieval tradition. The architectural motif is characteristic of episcopal deniers, referencing the cathedral of Chur. The legend CVRIA CIVIT, denoting the city of Chur (Curia), appears around the periphery of the irregular flan. The strike is typical of hammered coinage of the period, with uneven pressure resulting in partial legend legibility. The overall composition is consistent with known issues of the Bishopric of Chur under Ulrich I. |
