| Beschrijving keerzijde | As a bracteate, the reverse presents an incuse mirror image of the obverse design, showing the crowned facing head of the Duke in negative relief. The incuse impression of the crown, facial features, and flanking ornamental scrolls are clearly discernible, characteristic of the single-die hammered bracteate technique employed throughout the Duchy of Upper Bavaria during the reign of Louis II (1253-1294). The surface displays typical patination and encrustation consistent with extended burial or circulation. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Louis II ruled Upper Bavaria following the partition of 1255, which split the Wittelsbach holdings between the Upper and Lower Bavarian lines — a division that would shape regional coinage for generations. The bracteate fabric itself was already archaic by this period; most German territories had shifted toward thicker, two-sided pfennigs, but certain Bavarian and Franconian mints clung to the thin single-sided format well into the late thirteenth century. The Berger and Bohnenberger references place this piece firmly within a documented typological sequence, though precise mint attribution within Louis's territories remains unresolved in the literature.
