Reverse description Within a raised inner circle, a facing bust of a saint — most likely Saint Wenceslas, patron of Bohemia — rendered in a schematic Romanesque style, with large frontal eyes, a stylized beard indicated by radiating lines, and a hand holding a patriarchal or processional cross to the right. The drapery is suggested by bold incised lines across the shoulders. The circumferential legend +PRAGA CIVITAS runs around the periphery in irregular Latin capitals, identifying the Prague mint, consistent with Bohemian deniers of the Přemyslid dynasty.
