Reverse description The reverse displays a prominent stylized crown or architectural arch motif with multiple vertical elements rising from a horizontal baseline, rendered in bold relief consistent with early medieval hammered technique. Below the crown a grid or cross-hatch symbol occupies the lower central field, flanked by scattered letter fragments of a debased Latin legend around the periphery. Small cross pattée elements appear to the left of the main device. The design is schematic and typical of Přemyslid deniers attributed to Boleslaus II, showing the influence of Regensburg coinage workshop practice.
