| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crowned, frontal half-length effigy of Count Albert emerging above a crenellated fortified wall, the figure depicted in regal attire and holding an upright sword in the right hand and a pennant or banner in the left hand. The composition is characteristic of North German bracteate coinage of the early thirteenth century, rendered in high relief against a plain field. The architectural motif of the battlemented wall serves both as a heraldic element and a symbol of territorial authority. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Albert of Orlamünde held the Danish county of Nordalbingia as a fief under Valdemar II, governing the region between the Eider and Elbe rivers during a period when Danish royal power in the southern Baltic reached its greatest territorial extent. Bracteates of this type — struck on a single thin flan from one die — were the dominant small-change coinage of northern Germany throughout the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, their fragility making survivors in any decent state genuinely uncommon. Berger 232 is among the more precisely attributed issues from this county, which is not always the case with Nordalbingian bracteate series.
