| Beschrijving voorzijde | Frontal bust of Archbishop Gerhard I of Wildeshausen in pontifical vestments, depicted in high relief characteristic of the bracteate technique. The figure wears a mitre and is shown facing forward, holding a crozier (pastoral staff) in the left field and what appears to be a processional cross or sceptre in the right field. The archbishop's face is rendered in a stylized Romanesque manner with linear detailing on the vestments. The design is surrounded by a beaded or cable inner border, with a plain outer rim, the entire composition occupying the full flan in the single-sided bracteate tradition. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | As a bracteate, this coin is uniface; the reverse displays only the incuse mirror image of the obverse design, with no independent design or legend, characteristic of the thin single-sided hammered bracteate coinage produced in northern Germany during the early thirteenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Gerhard I held the see of Bremen from 1210 to 1219, a tenure defined largely by his friction with the Welfen party and his navigation of the power vacuum left by Otto IV's deteriorating imperial authority after Bouvines in 1214. Bremen's bracteate issues of this period are struck on foil-thin flans with predictable fragility; surviving examples without splits or edge losses are genuinely uncommon. Jesse 136 is among the scarcer attributed types from the Gerhard episcopate.
