| Obverse description | Irregular hammered silver flan displaying a large diagonal cross with splayed arms dominating the central field, dividing the surface into four quarters. Within each quadrant, abbreviated lettering is visible, partially legible as A, B, P, and O in a crude Latin script. The design is struck in low relief with characteristic unevenness typical of 13th-century Gotlandic bracteate-influenced coinage. The flat flan shows heavy surface patination and wear consistent with prolonged circulation. No distinct border or peripheral legend is present. |
