| Beschrijving voorzijde | A stylized royal crown occupies the central field, depicted in profile with beaded ornaments along its upper edge, set within a plain inner circle. The crown is rendered in a bold, primitive hammered style characteristic of 13th-century Scandinavian ecclesiastical coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, separated from it by a beaded or rope-pattern border. The overall design is compact and deeply struck, though irregular in flan shape as is typical of hand-struck medieval pennings. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Niels Stigsen held the see of Roskilde from 1234 to 1249, and episcopal coinage from Danish bishoprics in this period occupied a legally ambiguous space — minted under clerical authority yet circulating alongside royal issues in a monetary system still negotiating the boundaries between crown and church. Roskilde, as the seat of the most powerful diocese in Denmark and the burial site of Danish kings, carried weight that most episcopal mints did not.
The Frey New#1 attribution places this among the earliest documented issues of the type, suggesting it was struck close to the opening of Stigsen's episcopate.
