| Reverse description | As a bracteate, the reverse presents the incuse mirror image of the obverse design, displaying the negative impression of the two ecclesiastical figures flanking the central crozier. The thin hammered silver flan produces a raised outline on the reverse corresponding to the recessed areas of the obverse, typical of the bracteate technique practiced in the Rhineland and Central Germany during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. No additional inscriptions or design elements are independently present on the reverse. |
