Beschrijving voorzijde Displayed eagle rendered in a stylized Romanesque manner, featuring a prominent double-beaked head, abbreviated wings with elongated terminal feathers, and small rounded talons. The design is struck in high relief in bracteate fashion, with the image appearing as a mirror impression on the reverse. The overall composition is bold and schematic, characteristic of late 13th-century German bracteate coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

Bracteates of this weight class were struck on flans so thin that a single die — applied to one face only — pushed the design through to create a mirror impression on the reverse. The technique was common across the German territories from the mid-twelfth century onward, but by the 1270s many regional mints were already transitioning back to double-sided coinage under pressure from Italian trading networks that found the fragile, single-sided pieces difficult to handle in bulk mercantile transactions.
