Beschrijving voorzijde Uniface bracteate struck in thin silver sheet. Central field depicts a diagonal sword pointing to the right, crossed with a bishop's key oriented downward to the left, the two implements forming a prominent saltire-like composition. A six-pointed star appears to the upper left of the central devices, while a lozenge or diamond-shaped ring is visible to the lower right. The entire design is contained within a raised inner border of beads, with the irregular flan characteristic of medieval Baltic hammered coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

The Bishopric of Dorpat — a crusader ecclesiastical state established in 1224 following the Livonian Crusade — operated with considerable autonomy from both the Teutonic Knights and the Danish crown throughout the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. These bracteates served local exchange within a territory perpetually contested by Novgorodian raids, Lithuanian incursions, and periodic friction with the Livonian Order next door. Haljak's attribution spans nearly a century precisely because the type resisted modification — an unusual monetary conservatism for a frontier bishopric under constant political pressure.
