| Beschrijving keerzijde | Plain concave surface displaying the incuse mirror impression of the obverse stag design, as is universally characteristic of uniface bracteate coinage. The reverse bears no inscription, device, or intentional design, and exhibits the typical concavity resulting from the single-die hammered striking technique employed for bracteates of this era. |

Stolberg's bracteate coinage of the early fourteenth century was produced by a county whose silver resources derived directly from the Harz mining region — one of medieval Germany's most productive metallurgical zones. Henry V of Stolberg ruled during a period when small lordships were aggressively asserting coinage rights partly as a political statement against encroachment by larger neighbors, including the Counts of Mansfeld and the Archbishopric of Magdeburg.
Bracteates of this weight class were already an anachronism by 1310; the thicker, bilateral penny had largely displaced single-sided coinage across most of the Empire by this date. Stolberg's continued use of the form suggests either conservative local tradition or deliberate differentiation from regional competitors.
