| Aversbeschreibung | Equestrian figure of the Landgrave facing right, depicted in a stylized medieval manner with a dotted-patterned shield visible to the left side of the horse. To the sinister field, a crescent moon surmounts an arched structure with a tower, while a second crescent moon occupies the dexter field. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded inner border, with seven pellets distributed along the outer rim. The composition is characteristic of Thuringian bracteate coinage, rendered in the bold relief typical of hammered thin-flan issues of the early thirteenth century. |

Hermann II served as Landgrave of Thuringia during one of the most turbulent successions in the region's medieval history, inheriting his title amid dynastic disputes following the death of Ludwig IV — who died on crusade in 1227 en route to the Sixth Crusade. The bracteate format, with its wafer-thin flan struck from a single die, was the dominant coinage technology across central Germany throughout the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, and Thuringia was among its most prolific producers.
At 33mm across and barely half a gram, surviving examples are almost always found with some degree of peripheral cracking — an inherent structural weakness of the type, not a grading concern specific to any one die.
