<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orielensis, post: 3813722, member: 96898&quot;]That depends on what exactly you are searching for. </p><p><br /></p><p>A standard reference catalogue for bracteates in German is Frank Berger: Mittelalterliche Brakteaten im Kestner-Museum (Hannover: Kestner Museum 1993). It is available for free download <a href="https://www.hannover.de/Media/01-DATA-Neu/Downloads/Landeshauptstadt-Hannover/Kultur-Freizeit/Museum-August-Kestner/Publikationen/Mittelalterliche-Brakteaten-im-Kestner-Museum" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.hannover.de/Media/01-DATA-Neu/Downloads/Landeshauptstadt-Hannover/Kultur-Freizeit/Museum-August-Kestner/Publikationen/Mittelalterliche-Brakteaten-im-Kestner-Museum" rel="nofollow">here</a>. There currently is no comparable book in English.</p><p><br /></p><p>A comprehensive discussion of bracteates in English is given by Roger Svensson: Renovatio Monetae: Bracteates and Coinage Policies in Medieval Europe (London: Spink 2013). The book has quite a few weak spots, which are discussed by Marcus Phillips in his review in the Numismatic Chronicle 175 (2015), pp. 389-396 (on JSTOR). Generally, Svensson&#039;s book is useful, though.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some of Svensson&#039;s research on bracteates is also published in more concise form in Roger Svensson: The Bracteate as Economic Idea and Monetary Instrument, IFN Working Paper No. 973 (2013), available for download <a href="http://www.ifn.se/wfiles/wp/wp973.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ifn.se/wfiles/wp/wp973.pdf" rel="nofollow">here</a>.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
