Beschrijving voorzijde Bracteate type struck on a thin silver flan, depicting a stylized heraldic helmet shown in frontal view, surmounted by two curved horn-like crests as crest ornaments. At the center of the helmet a prominent annulet enclosing a central pellet serves as the visor device. The lower portion of the helmet terminates in a short-stemmed trefoil form. Scattered pellets flank the design in the field, and the whole is contained within a plain inner border.

Aanvullende informatie

Hannover's so-called Helmpfennig takes its collector name from the heraldic device that distinguished it from the flood of anonymous bracteate and half-bracteate pfennigs circulating across Lower Saxony in the fourteenth century. The city began issuing its own coinage after gaining greater municipal autonomy from the bishops of Minden, and this type spans over a century of that independent civic minting — an unusually long production run that reflects both institutional stability and the coin's acceptance across regional markets.

Being struck in silver at well under a gram, these pieces were the everyday transaction coin of the Hanseatic commercial orbit. The extended date range in BuckMeier means individual specimens can rarely be pinned to a narrower window without die study.
