Reverse description Central field displays a cross pattee with curved arms, adorned with small rings or pellets in each angle, all enclosed within a beaded inner circle, evoking Carolingian cross-type coinage widely imitated in early Piast Poland. The cross design is boldly engraved and fills the inner circle prominently. The surrounding circular legend, in retrograde or partially retrograde Latin characters, references a Christian invocation. The overall execution is characteristic of late 10th- to early 11th-century Central European hammered silver coinage.
