| Obverse description | Central field depicts a long-shafted cross or staff rising vertically, flanked on either side by groups of pellets or globules arranged in triangular clusters, suggestive of stylized foliage or heraldic decoration. To the right of the staff, a diagonal element — possibly a horn or wing — extends across the field in low relief. The entire design is enclosed within a raised inner ring, itself bounded by the characteristic irregular flan edge of bracteate coinage. The composition is rendered in the simple, bold die-cutting style typical of 13th-century Pomeranian bracteates, with no legend present. |
