Unknown Pomeranian local mint. About years 1050-1075.
NOTE: The same coins were found in the famous Lupawa coin hoard in Pomerania. They were produced in numerous local mints from the mid-11th to the early 12th century. Numerous imitations and hybrids of German, Anglo-Saxon and Danish coins were intended to provide for the needs of the local market for money. Therefore, no care was taken to make coins with original images and intelligible inscriptions.
One-sided coin. Its distant prototype is probably the reverse of Anglo-Saxon coins, depicting a cross with rosette arches in the corners.
Pseudolegend: The letters and graphical signs do not form an intelligible inscription.
Weight 1, 20 G, diameter 18 MM
