| Beschrijving voorzijde | Within a raised inner circle, a lion passant to the right, depicted in a schematic medieval style typical of bracteate coinage. Beneath the lion, a six-pointed star occupies the lower field. The design is rendered in low relief on the thin hammered flan, characteristic of north German bracteate production of the mid-thirteenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
John, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg, ruled a territory whose bracteate coinage reflects the fragmented political geography of 13th-century northern Germany, where dozens of local lords struck thin single-sided pfennigs as much to assert jurisdictional identity as for commercial use. The extreme thinness of bracteate fabric — a technical consequence of striking on a single die — makes these pieces acutely vulnerable to creasing and rim loss, and Denicke 289 survivors in collectible condition are genuinely scarce.
