| Obverse description | Stylized architectural facade depicting a structure flanked by two towers, rendered in the Romanesque manner characteristic of early medieval bracteate-influenced coinage. Between the towers, an unidentified object — possibly a hand or symbolic motif — is shown raised on a pedestal. A square gateway at the base encloses a frontal head in low relief, with a ring or annulet placed on either side of the arch. The entire design is enclosed within two concentric beaded circles, between which runs a deceptive pseudo-inscription imitating a formal legend. |
