| Additional information |
Thin-flan bracteates of this type circulated during the decades when East Pomeranian territorial control over the Gdańsk region was repeatedly contested — first by the Teutonic Knights pressing from the west, then by the Piast dukes of Greater Poland asserting dynastic claims from the south. The attribution to a Gdańsk mint remains tentative; the catalogued parallels in Wieloński and Fbg. 946 suggest regional production but the die evidence has never been conclusively tied to a single workshop.
At 0.2g, these pieces were essentially single-use tokens in local trade, too fragile for extended handling.
