| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing seated crowned figure shown frontally, holding a willow twig in each hand with stylized foliate branches extending outward to either side. At the lower flanks of the figure, two small rings or pellets serve as decorative field elements. The design is rendered in the characteristic thin, high-relief bracteate style, with the figural motif centrally placed within the broad, irregular flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Henry VI, Landgrave of Thuringia, held the Weida bailiwick during a period when bracteate production across the Thuringian-Meißen region was at its administrative and artistic peak. These thin, single-sided strikes were the dominant small-change currency of central Germany through much of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries — not by preference, but because the shallow silver deposits of the region made full-flan double-sided coinage economically impractical at this denomination. Berger 2063 is among the more localized attributions in the series, tied to a minor lordship rather than an episcopal or comital mint.
