| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing bust of the ruler depicted in a schematic, stylized manner, flanked by the letters R and A in the upper field, the effigy set atop a crenellated wall rendered in bold relief. The design is executed in the crude but characteristic hammered style of medieval Bavarian bracteate-influenced pfennigs. The bust features a crown-like headdress ornamented with pellets, with the shoulders and neck indicated by geometric forms. The overall composition is tightly contained within the irregular flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Rupert I ruled the Upper Palatinate as Elector Palatine from 1353 until his death in 1390, a tenure that saw him navigate the turbulent aftermath of the Black Death and the shifting territorial ambitions of the Wittelsbacher dynasty. Small silver pfennigs of this type circulated widely across the Rhineland-Palatinate region, functioning as the workhorse denomination in an economy still recovering from the demographic collapse of the mid-fourteenth century.
The Steinh#137 attribution links this piece to Steinhilber's foundational work on medieval German bracteates and pfennigs — a catalogue that remains the primary reference for separating the numerous die variants this reign produced.
