| Beschrijving voorzijde | Counterstamp applied to the host coin consisting of a two-fold shield bearing the civic arms of Cham, accompanied by four lines of text in the field. The counterstamp is punched into the obverse surface of a Prague Groschen host coin, the underlying design of which remains partially visible. The strike is irregular, consistent with medieval hammered counterstamping practice. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cham, a Bavarian imperial city on the Regen River, lacked minting rights but retained the authority to counterstamp foreign silver to validate it for local circulation. These Prague Groschen, struck under the Bohemian kings and flowing westward through trade routes, received the city's punch to guarantee acceptance — an assertion of municipal commercial authority without the privilege of original coinage. The practice was common enough along the Bohemian-Bavarian border corridor, where Groschen moved freely but trust in foreign silver was conditional.
Krůsy C 1,2 distinguishes two counterstamp variants applied during this forty-year window.
