| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing crowned imperial bust of Emperor Frederick II set within a beaded inner circle, the crown depicted with prominent central finial and flanking ornamental rosettes or floral elements at the temples. The emperor's face is rendered in a stylized Romanesque manner, with bold features and a formal frontal presentation befitting imperial iconography. Beaded lace-like drapery descends from either side of the face, suggesting regal vestments. The inner circle is surrounded by an outer border composed of alternating pellets, crosses, and lozenge-shaped ornaments, forming a decorative frame characteristic of Swabian bracteate coinage. The entire design is struck in high relief on a thin single-sided flan, consistent with bracteate production technique. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick II's Ulm bracteates occupy a peculiar administrative moment: the emperor was simultaneously King of Sicily, King of Germany, and Holy Roman Emperor, yet spent remarkably little time north of the Alps. Local minting authorities in Swabia operated with considerable autonomy during his long absences, which almost certainly accounts for the variation seen across Ulm issues of this period. Cahn's taxonomy of these thin-flan pieces remains the primary reference precisely because the documentary record is so sparse.
