| Beschrijving voorzijde | Uniface bracteate design featuring a stylized crown in the central field, rendered in relief against the hammered silver surface. The crown displays three finials, the central one elevated above the two lateral ones, with a rounded base element below. The central motif is enclosed within an inner beaded circle, which is in turn surrounded by an outer border of larger pellets or annulets arranged continuously around the coin's periphery. The overall composition is characteristic of the Reval (Tallinn) bracteate coinage issued during the Danish period of rule over Estonia. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Danish Estonia's coinage authority in Reval (modern Tallinn) produced these thin, single-sided bracteates following the 1219 conquest of northern Estonia by Valdemar II — a campaign that began as a crusade and ended as an annexation. The extreme thinness of the flan, a consequence of the bracteate technique, makes clean strikes exceptionally rare; most surviving examples show some degree of double-striking or flan cracking inherent to the type.
Haljak II#8 places this among the earliest documented coinage of the region, predating the transfer of Danish Estonia to the Teutonic Order in 1346 following the St. George's Night Uprising.
