Need help with Village name on passenger list

Hi,
I need help with a village name on a Swinemuenda Passenger List for Gustav Zingler, passenger #52
.
Ancestry.com has the village as Instemin. I think it is Justemin.
What do you think?
Thanks for your time. Myke Rachu

Myke, I have found that you are correct that the subject was born in Justemin, it is a small Dorf in Pommern according to Meyergazette

Comparing the scribes letters in other entries, it looks like he wrote Instemin. In other entries the J loops well below baseline and the u is nice and crisp, not rounded at the top. So based upon handwriting I would say Instemin.
However, I can find no Instemin in Pommern. Since there does exist a Justemin in Pommern, it is certainly worth checking out.

Thanks to both of you.
