Lot description

Brakteat depicting: a half-figure of a prince in a pointed helmet in front, a palm branch at the left shoulder, at the right shoulder an inscription in Hebrew letters GND? (from Gniezno?).

D. Gorlinska sees the palm branch as a symbol of strength, victory and justice, while pointing out that this is the only example in this group of brakteats, where the branch is held by a ruler depicted as a knight (helmet).

Very nice, with only light crumbling outside the shaft.

A rare coin.
