| Beschrijving keerzijde | 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. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Boleslaus II secured the founding of the Prague bishopric in 973, finally giving Bohemia an ecclesiastical structure independent of Regensburg — a political achievement that reshaped the kingdom's relationship with the Holy Roman Empire. Coinage under his rule reflects this transitional moment, drawing on Carolingian denier prototypes while slowly absorbing local Bohemian idiom.
Cach 136 is among the more precisely attributed types in the series, though die linkage studies by Czech numismatists have shown considerable variation within the type grouping.
