Aversbeschreibung Two standing figures facing one another in the central field, rendered in the bold, schematic style characteristic of late 12th-century Polish bracteate coinage. The figures appear to be engaged in a formal exchange or investiture scene, each depicted with stylized drapery and headdress. A six-pointed star occupies the lower left field. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, beyond which a partial architectural or ornamental frieze runs along the upper register. The overall composition reflects the feudal iconographic conventions of the Piast dynastic coinage of Greater Poland.

Reversbeschreibung As a bracteate, this coin is struck on a single thin flan with a single die; the reverse presents only a faint incuse mirror impression of the obverse design, with no independent design or legend, which is characteristic of the bracteate technique employed in Polish principality coinage of the late 12th century.

Zusätzliche Informationen

Mieszko the Younger's tenure over the Kalisz district was contested and short — he was expelled by his brother Mieszko III the Old and spent much of his rule fighting to hold any territory at all. Coins attributed to him from this period are rare precisely because his effective authority was so geographically constrained and administratively unstable.

Bracteates of this region and period were struck on thin, single-sided flans, making survivors prone to cracking along the edges. The Kop#136 attribution places this firmly within the Kalisz mint sequence, one of the few minting centers functioning in Greater Poland during the fragmentation period following the 1138 Testament of Bolesław III.
