Obverse description Central field features a plain cross with four pellets in each quarter, evoking a cross-and-pellets motif characteristic of early Bohemian coinage. The cross is rendered in a bold, primitive style consistent with mid-tenth-century hammered silver production. The surrounding border consists of a ring of pellets or beads forming an inner circle. An irregular outer rim with a crenellated or beaded edge encloses the design. No legible inscription is present, though vestigial letter-like elements appear around the outer border.
