Reverse description As a bracteate, this coin was struck from a single die, leaving an incuse mirror image of the obverse design on the reverse. The reverse therefore shows the letter B and flanking pellets in negative relief, recessed into the fabric of the thin silver flan. No independent reverse design or legend was intended; the incuse impression is an inherent consequence of the single-sided bracteate striking technique used during the reign of Sverre Sigurdsson (1177-1202).
