| Reverse description | Central motif consisting of a stylized architectural or triangular element, possibly representing a church facade or an abstracted building, rendered in a schematic manner typical of early Bohemian deniers. Below the triangular structure appears an inscription or letters, partially legible, set within horizontal bands. The execution is crude yet deliberate, characteristic of the primitive die-cutting techniques employed in the Přemyslid mints of the mid-tenth century. The coin's edge is irregular and the flan shows typical hammered planchet characteristics. |
