Obverse description Bearded lord (Jakza von Köpenick) enthroned and facing right, depicted in full frontal authority between two stylized towers or architectural elements, holding an upright sword in one hand and a palm branch in the other — attributes of lordship and peace. The figure is rendered in the flat, single-sided relief characteristic of bracteate coinage, with thin hammered silver forming the entire design field. The composition reflects the Romanesque artistic conventions of mid-12th-century Brandenburg-area bracteates.
