| Beschrijving keerzijde | As a bracteate, the reverse presents the incuse mirror image of the obverse design, showing the negative impression of the central eagle motif in a concave field. The surface is plain and unworked, with natural flow lines and hammer marks visible across the flan. The irregular flan edge exhibits the typical ragged, slightly cracked border resulting from the bracteate striking process on a thin silver disc. No additional design elements, inscriptions, or mint marks appear on the reverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Świętopełk II ruled East Pomerania for nearly five decades, a tenure marked by relentless conflict with the Teutonic Knights, the Piast dukes of Poland, and his own brothers. The bracteate form — a single-die, one-sided thin silver strike — was the dominant coinage technology in the southern Baltic region during this period, adopted precisely because the minimal silver content suited the monetary realities of fragmented, frequently warring principalities.
The Gdańsk attribution is based on Świętopełk's consolidation of that port town as his primary seat of power after 1227.
