| Beschrijving voorzijde | A stylized eagle displayed in a highly schematic, linear rendering characteristic of late 12th- to mid-13th-century German bracteate coinage. The bird is depicted with a disproportionately small head relative to its elongated, narrow body, with extended wings adorned by additional feather details along their outer margins. The design occupies the full flan in the manner typical of single-sided bracteate technique, with the relief struck on the obverse appearing in incuse on the reverse. The overall composition reflects the flat, emblematic heraldic style prevalent in the Hohenstaufen-era Holy Roman Empire. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Blank, as is standard for bracteate coinage of this period, where the hammering process produces only a faint incuse mirror image of the obverse design on the reverse face with no independent design or inscription. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Bracteates of this period were struck on flans so thin that the design punched entirely through to the reverse — a production method that looks fragile but was a deliberate regional adaptation across German-speaking mints, where single-sided coinage dominated from roughly the mid-twelfth century onward. Attribution within this series is notoriously difficult; RW#30.2 places this piece within a cluster of issues whose precise mint origin remains disputed among Rainer Wittkowski's own successors.
