Beschrijving keerzijde As a bracteate, the reverse presents the incuse mirror image of the obverse design, showing the faint negative impression of the lion passant within the inner circle, with no additional detail or inscription. The surface is characteristically plain and unworked, displaying the natural texture of the thin hammered silver flan.

Aanvullende informatie

Upper Lusatia passed between Bohemian and Brandenburg hands repeatedly across the thirteenth century, and this bracteate spans exactly that contested interval — struck under Ottokar II of Bohemia, who seized the margravate in 1253, and continuing under his son Wenceslaus II after Ottokar's death at the Battle of Marchfeld in 1278. Bracteate coinage in the region was already a Saxon tradition by this point, the single-sided fabric being a practical response to the thin silver available from local extraction rather than any deliberate aesthetic choice.

Dbg. 1146 is among the more precisely documented issues in Dannenberg's corpus for this region.
