| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse displays a highly stylised geometric and ornamental design centred on a symmetrical foliate or radiate motif, rendered in a flat, punched technique typical of 12th-century Austrian bracteate coinage. Circular pellets and curved foliate elements radiate outward from a central point, enclosed within a beaded or dotted inner border. The decorative treatment is abstract and heavily worn, making individual elements difficult to distinguish with certainty. The overall design reflects the regional workshop style of the Formbach mint during the mid-12th century. No inscription or legend is present. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Formbach, a small county on the Bavarian-Austrian frontier, produced coinage during a period when minting rights were exercised by local nobility with considerable autonomy from imperial oversight. Ekbert II and his successor Ekbert III ruled during the mid-twelfth century, a period when the Babenberg consolidation of power in Austria was steadily absorbing or marginalizing smaller dynastic houses like Formbach.
The county's line died out shortly after this issue, with Formbach holdings passing through inheritance to the Bavarian dukes. Coins attributable to this final generation of Formbach rulers are correspondingly scarce.
