| Beschrijving keerzijde | Stylized depiction of a three-towered church facade rendered in a flat, schematic Romanesque manner. The central structure features a prominent rounded archway surmounted by a cross, flanked on each side by a tower, each topped with a small cross or finial. The architectural representation is characteristic of 12th-century German ecclesiastical bracteate-influenced deniers, conveying the Abbey of Weissenburg's institutional identity. The field is plain and unlettered, enclosed within a beaded or dotted inner border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Weissenburg Abbey, founded in the seventh century in Alsace, held minting rights granted by the Carolingians and maintained them through the upheavals of the Investiture Controversy. This issue dates to the abbacy during the reign of Frederick Barbarossa, a period when imperial monasteries across the region were asserting economic autonomy through small but deliberately distinctive local coinages. The term "Dickpfennig" — thick penny — distinguishes this dumpy, high-relief fabric from the bracteate tradition spreading through much of contemporary Germany.
