Denier Bracteate - Leszek the White Kraków mint

Leszek the White spent much of his reign fighting off rival Piast claimants and navigating the fractious politics of fragmented Poland — his hold on Kraków was interrupted twice by forced exile. Bracteates of this period were struck on flans so thin that die pressure alone could crack them, and the Kraków mint under Leszek produced some of the most delicate examples in the Piast sequence. The absence of a Kopicki reference number places this piece outside the catalogued mainstream, suggesting either an unpublished die pairing or a variety too scarce to have entered the standard corpus.
