| Beschrijving voorzijde | Uniface bracteate design featuring a crossed sword and episcopal key arranged diagonally at center, the sword oriented to the left and the key to the right. A small pellet appears to the right of the central devices. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded border encircling the coin's periphery. The relief is shallow and characteristic of thin hammered bracteate coinage of the Livonian ecclesiastical mints. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Bishopric of Dorpat — carved out of Livonian territories conquered by the Sword Brothers and subsequently absorbed into the Teutonic Order's sphere — issued bracteates as a practical response to the chronic shortage of small-denomination silver in the eastern Baltic. At 0.13g, these pieces were struck from foil-thin flans, a technique that allowed a single die blow to produce legible imagery without the metal thickness required for two-sided coinage. The nearly century-long attribution window reflects the difficulty of sequencing anonymous episcopal issues from this region without documentary mint records.
