Comment
Fd.v.Göd.60Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of Christian and pagan imagery. The obverse side of the coin depicts a cross, which symbolizes Christianity, while the reverse side features a image of a bracteate, which is a type of medieval ornament that was believed to have magical powers. This blending of religious and superstitious symbols reflects the cultural and religious diversity of the Margraviate of Brandenburg during the 13th century.
