| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bracteate-style hammered coin depicting a stylized bull's head facing forward, rendered in low relief at the center of the field, a characteristic heraldic device of the Duchy of Mecklenburg. The bull's head is shown with prominent horns curving outward and dotted ornamentation above the crown of the head. The central device is enclosed within a raised inner ring, surrounded by a toothed or beaded outer border forming the coin's irregular round flan. The overall design is bold and schematic, consistent with late 15th-century north German bracteate coinage. No legend or inscription appears on this face. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Magnus II and Balthasar ruled Mecklenburg jointly following the division of the principality, a dynastic arrangement that produced some of the more administratively awkward coinage of the late 15th century. Joint-rule issues like this one required both names to appear on a coin weighing under half a gram — a genuinely tight technical problem for any die-cutter of the period. The blaffert itself was a small regional silver denomination circulating widely across northern German territories, distinct from the groschen tradition to the south.
