| Beschrijving voorzijde | A stylized gate or tower motif composed of two vertical pillars supporting a crenellated superstructure, rendered in a schematic, flat relief characteristic of bracteate coinage. Three pellets arranged in a trefoil or cloverleaf formation appear below the gate, centrally positioned within the field. The entire design is enclosed within a plain, slightly irregular circular border. The composition is bold and geometric, with no legend or inscription present. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Blank, as is typical of bracteate coinage, where the design struck on the obverse is visible in incuse relief on the reverse due to the extreme thinness of the flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Teutonic Order ran its Prussian mint operation with unusual autonomy for a crusading institution — the Grand Masters functioned effectively as territorial princes, issuing coinage independently of both the Holy Roman Emperor and the Polish crown. This particular anonymous denier bracteate falls within the administration of Werner von Orseln or his successor Dietrich von Altenburg, a period marked by intensifying conflict with Lithuania and growing friction with Poland that would culminate in the costly wars of the mid-fourteenth century. At 0.17 g, these pieces were struck on foil-thin flans, making survivors without cracks or edge losses genuinely difficult to find.
