| Beschrijving keerzijde | Plain and featureless, as is characteristic of all bracteate coinage; the reverse shows only the incuse mirror impression of the obverse design, a defining technical feature of single-sided bracteate manufacture. The surface is smooth and unworked, reflecting the thin silver sheet used in production. |

Mieszko III ruled longer than any other Piast duke — twice, with a 22-year exile wedged between his reigns — and his monetary output reflects that turbulent longevity. Bracteates of this type were thin, single-sided strikes produced by hammering a flan so delicate that most surviving examples are creased, cracked, or partially collapsed. Finding one with a flat, uncollapsed field is genuinely uncommon.
Kopicki 79 situates this piece within the Gniezno or Kalisz attribution, though distinguishing between the two mints on typological grounds alone remains unresolved in the literature.
