| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central square field filled with a bold diagonal lattice pattern of lozenge-shaped voids arranged in a regular grid, surrounded by a plain raised border forming a recessed frame. Three globular pellets are visible in the outer field beyond the border, positioned at the upper left, upper right, and right side of the flan, serving as decorative or die-alignment elements. The design is entirely aniconic and devoid of inscription, typical of the primitive bracteate-influenced coinage of medieval Gotland. The overall composition is stark and geometric, reflecting the archaic engraving conventions of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Visby's merchant republic operated with remarkable autonomy during this period, its Baltic trade networks stretching from Novgorod to Lübeck well before the formal Hanseatic League consolidated around it. These tiny bracteate-style pennies were the working currency of that commerce — struck locally under Gotlandic authority rather than Swedish crown control, which the island successfully resisted for much of the medieval period.
At 0.20g, attrition and loss were inevitable, making survivors in any condition genuinely scarce.
