Aanvullende informatie

John, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg, ruled a territory whose mints were among the most prolific producers of bracteates in the mid-thirteenth century Lower Saxony region. These thin, single-sided silver pieces were struck by hammering a blank over a single die — the design pressing through to create a mirror impression on the reverse — a technique that made them fast to produce but structurally fragile, which explains the survival rate.

Attribution within the bracteate series of this period remains genuinely difficult; many types assigned to John overlap chronologically with issues of his co-ruling relatives, and die studies continue to revise earlier catalog assignments.
