| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing bust of a lord or ruler wearing a distinctive tall pointed hat surmounted by a pellet, rendered in the bold, stylized manner characteristic of late medieval South German bracteate coinage. The face is depicted frontally with schematic features, including a broad nose and a beaded or pellet-ornamented collar at the neck. Flanking the bust in the field are the letters T and E to the left and V to the right, serving as an abbreviated inscription referencing the issuing lordship of Tiengen. The entire design is set within a raised inner ring, with the flan exhibiting the characteristic irregular, lobed outline of a hammered bracteate planchet. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tiengen, a small lordship on the upper Rhine near the Swiss border, issued coinage under the authority of the Counts of Sulz during this period. The late 14th century saw a proliferation of such bracteate-style minor silver pieces across the fragmented southwestern German territories, as local lords exercised minting rights granted or tacitly tolerated under the loose framework of imperial privilege.
The Berger and Bonhoff references place this among documented but genuinely scarce regional issues — survival rates for single-pfennig coinage of minor lordships from this era are low precisely because the pieces circulated hard and were eventually demonetized without ceremony.
