Reverse description As is standard for bracteate coinage, the reverse presents a incuse mirror image of the obverse design, showing the lozengy shield in negative relief. The thin silver flan reveals the characteristic indentation produced by the single-die hammering technique. No additional design elements, legends, or mint marks appear on the reverse. The surface retains the natural flow lines and slight irregularities inherent to hand-struck bracteates of this period.
