Denier Bracteate - Hermann I

正面描述	Uniface bracteate struck in thin silver. A schematically rendered crowned episcopal or regal face occupies the central field, depicted frontally in a highly stylised medieval manner. A six-pointed star appears to the left of the crown and a second six-pointed star to the right, flanking the effigy symmetrically. The entire design is enclosed within a border of raised pellets forming a beaded inner ring, itself framed by the irregular flan edge.

附加信息	Hermann I, the first Bishop of Dorpat, received his see in 1224 following the Livonian Crusade's consolidation of the region under the Sword Brothers. His coinage authority derived directly from that military conquest — the bishopric itself was carved out of subdued Estonian territory, and these bracteates functioned as much as instruments of colonial monetary policy as everyday exchange. At 0.13 g, they represent the extreme lower boundary of viable silver coinage, struck on foil-thin flans prone to cracking along die edges.
