| 表面の説明 | A passant lion moving to the right with head turned en face toward the viewer, rendered in the bold, stylised relief characteristic of medieval German bracteate die-work. The beast is depicted striding above a crenellated wall with a central arched gateway, referencing the heraldic symbolism of the House of Welf. The design is contained within a plain inner ring, with the surrounding field bearing the circumferential Latin legend. The single-sided fabric and high convex relief are typical of the north German bracteate tradition of the early thirteenth century. |

Otto das Kind — Otto I of Brunswick-Lüneburg — inherited a drastically reduced territory after the Welf dynasty's catastrophic fall from imperial favor. His grandfather Henry the Lion had been stripped of his duchies by Frederick Barbarossa in 1180, and the family spent decades rebuilding political legitimacy through exactly the kind of local lordship these thin bracteates physically embodied: small-scale, regionally circulated, bearing the authority of a diminished but surviving house.
Bracteates of this type were struck on foil-thin flans from a single die, meaning the reverse is simply a mirror impression of the obverse — a minting method common in northern Germany through the 13th century. The Denicke 112 attribution places this piece within a well-documented but seldom-complete typological series.
