| Obverse description | Circular hammered copper flan in heavily worn condition, bearing a partial Latin legend in uncial characters along the upper periphery, commencing with a cross pattee. The central field displays a stylized design, heavily degraded due to wear and corrosion, consistent with the small denomination sterling type issued under Erik of Pomerania. The legend reads partially as MONETA, identifying this as a monetary issue, with the remaining characters largely illegible. The overall style reflects the crude hammered coinage typical of early fifteenth-century Danish copper sterlings. The flan is irregular and shows characteristic medieval striking irregularities. |
