Beschrijving voorzijde A crowned ruler depicted on horseback in profile to the left, rendered in a schematic Romanesque style typical of medieval Polish bracteat-related coinage. The equestrian figure is shown in a dynamic pose with the horse's legs raised, enclosed within a beaded inner border. The composition fills the field entirely, with no legible legend preserved on this example.

Beschrijving keerzijde Facing bust of a crowned ruler, portrayed frontally in a schematic manner characteristic of 13th-century Polish deniers. The crowned head is rendered with stylized facial features including indicated eyes, nose, and chin, with hair shown as a series of horizontal lines flanking the face. A small architectural element, possibly a tower or cross, appears above the crown at the apex. The bust is contained within a beaded border, with faint traces of a possible letter or symbol in the right field.

Aanvullende informatie

This denier falls within the condominium period when Przemysł I and Bolesław the Pious ruled Greater Poland jointly following the death of their father Władysław Odonic in 1239. The arrangement was unusual — two adult Piast brothers governing the same duchy without formal territorial partition until 1247, when they divided their holdings along lines that would define regional politics for decades.

Kopicki 144 is among the harder attributions in early Polish medieval coinage; the Gniezno mint's output from this period overlaps uncomfortably with Poznań issues, and correct attribution often hinges on die-link analysis rather than stylistic grounds alone.
