| Obverse description | Central field features a bold cross pattée with a pellet in each of the four quarters formed by the arms of the cross, all contained within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend reads BOLESLAVS in Latin characters, partially visible around the periphery of the irregularly shaped flan. The overall design is characteristic of early Bohemian hammered coinage, with a crude but forceful execution typical of tenth-century Central European deniers. |
