| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central device consisting of a bold cross pattee with three pellets arranged in each of the four quadrants formed by the arms of the cross, the whole enclosed within a beaded inner circle. A circular Latin legend in debased lettering surrounds the beaded border, with individual letters separated by pellets or wedge-shaped ornaments. The field shows the characteristic uneven surface of an early medieval hammered silver denier, with letters exhibiting the simplified, almost abstract quality typical of tenth-century Bohemian mint production. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Boleslaus I earned his epithet by murdering his brother Wenceslas in 935 — the same Wenceslas later canonized as Bohemia's patron saint — and then held the duchy against the Ottonian empire for fourteen years of sustained warfare before submitting to Henry I's successor in 950. These deniers belong to that consolidation period, when Boleslaus was simultaneously fighting off German pressure and centralizing Bohemian authority hard enough to require his own coinage. Cach 10 is among the earliest attributable Bohemian silver issues, placing it at the very root of the medieval Czech numismatic sequence.
