| Additional information |
Brandenburg's bracteate deniers of the second half of the thirteenth century were struck under the Ascanians during a period when the margraviate was actively expanding eastward into Slavic territories. The extreme thinness of these single-sided pieces — a production method dominant in northern and eastern Germany but largely rejected by western mints — made them acutely vulnerable to folding and cracking, which is precisely why undamaged survivors are difficult to source.
The Bahrf. 329 attribution places this firmly within a contested typological group where die linkages between Brandenburg and neighboring Pomeranian issues remain incompletely resolved.
