| Reverse description | The reverse, consistent with the Dünnpfennig (light denier) tradition, presents a uniface-style incuse impression of the obverse design, exhibiting the characteristic shallow, ghosted relief inherent to thinly struck hammered bracteate-related coinage of the Swabian region. The central field shows a faint incuse circular depression corresponding to the obverse boss, surrounded by the impressed outline of the peripheral ornamental border of alternating triangular points and crescent motifs. The surfaces display natural flow lines and die wear consistent with 12th-century hand-struck silver coinage. |
