Beschrijving voorzijde Facing crowned bust of the ruler in high relief, the three-pointed crown rendered in schematic linear style characteristic of mid-13th century Swabian bracteates. The effigy holds a lily sceptre in each raised hand, the fleur-de-lis finials of which extend outward symmetrically without touching the inner bead ring. The design is framed by a plain inner ring and a bold outer border of large, evenly spaced pellets, with no legend present in the field.

Aanvullende informatie

Conrad IV died in 1254, making the upper bound of this issue's date range attributable to the interregnum period or to his successor claimants rather than to Conrad himself — the attribution to Conrad IV is essentially a bracket of convenience. Ulm was a key imperial mint city on the Danube, and bracteate production there during the mid-thirteenth century reflects the fragmentation of minting authority that accelerated after the Staufen collapse.

At 0.49g and struck on a single-sided flan, bracteates of this weight class were vulnerable to folding and cracking in circulation. Berger's corpus remains the standard reference for southwest German bracteates of this period.
