| Beschrijving voorzijde | Within a raised inner circle set against a concave field, a large Gothic letter A rendered in relief, the form composed of two diagonal strokes joined by a crossbar, all executed in the thin single-sided bracteate technique characteristic of 13th-century Central European minting. The irregular flan displays a slightly serrated or wavy edge typical of hammered bracteates of the period. The design is stark and emblematic, likely serving as an initial identifying the issuing authority or mint. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ottokar II of Bohemia, who controlled Upper Lusatia from 1253, died at the Battle of Marchfeld in August 1278 — the very year this bracteate was struck — defeated by Rudolf of Habsburg in what effectively ended Přemyslid dominance over the region. Bracteates of this margravate are notoriously thin-flan pieces prone to stress fractures, and surviving examples without splits or edge losses are genuinely uncommon at any weight.
