Reverse description As a bracteate, the reverse presents an incuse mirror image of the obverse design, showing the lion passant and trefoil motif in shallow negative relief against a plain, unadorned field. The thin hammered silver flan exhibits the characteristic distortion and irregular edge typical of bracteate coinage from the Swabian region in the thirteenth century. No separate reverse design, legend, or mint mark is present.
