Beschrijving keerzijde As a bracteate, this coin has no true reverse; the reverse face displays only the incuse mirror image of the obverse design, a characteristic feature of the bracteate technique in which the thin silver flan is struck from a single die. The surface shows the sunken impression of the imperial bust and inner beaded circle, with no additional design elements or inscriptions.

Aanvullende informatie

Henry VI's reign over the imperial mints was complicated by his near-constant military campaigning — the conquest of Sicily in 1194 and the captivity of Richard I of England consumed enormous political and financial energy. Ulm, as an imperial city on the Danube, struck these thin silver bracteates under direct imperial authority rather than episcopal or baronial oversight, which distinguishes this issue from the majority of contemporary German bracteate production.

At 0.40 g, the fabric is exceptionally fragile — bracteates of this weight class survive intact at a fraction the rate of conventional struck coinage.
