Obverse description Within a raised circular border, a stylized bird rendered in low relief is depicted holding a floral spray, identified as a lily, in its beak. The design is executed in the simplified, schematic manner characteristic of medieval Pomeranian bracteate coinage, with the bird's body and the lily motif occupying the central field. The irregular flan, typical of hammered bracteate production, displays a pronounced concave curvature with a flattened rim. No legend or inscription is present in the field.
