Beschrijving voorzijde Half-length frontal effigy of a bishop, vested and wearing a mitra (mitre), the right hand raising a crozier and the left hand holding a book (bible). Above the figure, three rounded arches form an architectural canopy, a compositional device characteristic of Rhenish and Swabian bracteate coinage of the late 12th to early 13th century. The design is rendered in low relief on the thin hammered flan, with the architectural framing lending a hieratic, Romanesque quality to the episcopal portrait.

Aanvullende informatie

The Bishopric of Constance was one of the largest dioceses in the medieval Latin church — at its territorial peak it stretched from Alsace to the Inn River — yet its coinages from this period remain poorly documented compared to its political weight. This bracteate was struck under a joint episcopal administration, reflecting the not uncommon practice of co-governance during disputed or transitional successions. Diethelm of Krenkingen held the see from 1165 to 1190; Werner of Staufen followed immediately after, suggesting this type spans the transition between them rather than a genuine co-episcopate.
