Change Bracteate structure

Hi !

I suggest for all items where “Bracteate” is selected as manufacturing method to remove the reverse fields in the edition form, and add a hardcoded text in replacement being something like “Incuse design of the obverse” or else.

Currently we have a lot of inconsistency here, with mentions like “uniface”, or nothing at all.

What do you think?

One example: N#106700

I agree. On Swedish plate money also that problem is present!

There are many uniface coins. Although I would keep the option to include reverse picture, maybe by checkmark.

I didn't talk about reverse picture: there should have a picture, for any item (even uniface or Bracteate), I was just talking about reverse desc + lettering + engraver etc

I find it sad that many auction house do not publish photo of revers breacteate…

Hello,

I agree we should have a standard way to handle uniface coins.

Lettering, script, and engraver are definitely not needed. We may want to keep the reverse description to differentiate incuse design from plain.

A similar idea is already discussed here: https://en.numista.com/forum/topic91970.html

Let's continue the discussion over there.
