| Obverse description | Central field depicts a stylized architectural structure, likely a church or fortified gate, rendered in a schematic Romanesque manner. The building features a prominent central arch flanked by two towers, each surmounted by a cross pattée, with additional cross-topped turrets visible at the outer corners. The architectural motif is enclosed within a plain inner circle, surrounded by a border of small triangular or wedge-shaped ornaments forming the outer legend area. The inscription along the border is largely illegible due to the irregular flan and typical wear of hammered coinage. The overall style is characteristic of Danubian Pfennige of the mid-to-late twelfth century. |
