| Reverse description | Architectural composition depicting a multi-towered fortified structure with three towers rising above a gabled house or gate building; a single dot appears on the gable front as a decorative or heraldic detail. The structure is rendered in the schematic, linear style typical of medieval German bracteate-era pfennigs, with the towers clearly articulated above the roofline. The surrounding field carries the Latin legend +VRANCENEC, referencing the town of Frankenberg in Hesse, which served as the mint place under Sophia's regency. |
