| Beschrijving voorzijde | Thin bracteate struck on a single flan exhibiting a central cross composed of four diagonal lines radiating from the center, creating an X-form design. In each of the four quadrants formed by the cross, a letter is positioned: G at left, A at top, E at right, and V at bottom, together constituting the abbreviated legend GAEV. The design is rendered in low relief typical of bracteate coinage, with the irregular flan showing the characteristic thinness and slight warping associated with hammered bracteates of the Rhenish episcopal series. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Luitpold of Schönfeld served as Bishop of Worms during one of the most turbulent stretches of medieval German imperial politics, his episcopate spanning the collapse of Hohenstaufen authority following Henry VI's death in 1197 and the subsequent civil war between Philip of Swabia and Otto IV. Bracteates of this period from Rhenish ecclesiastical mints were typically struck on flans so thin that survival without cracking or folding is itself noteworthy. The Bishopric of Worms held imperial minting rights granted under earlier Salian privilege, and Luitpold's issues reflect the diocese asserting that autonomy during a decade when central imperial oversight had effectively dissolved.
