| Reverse description | The reverse displays a stylised architectural motif interpreted as a representation of a chapel or church facade, with a triangular gabled roof surmounting a structured body composed of horizontal lines, evoking a schematic building or altar. Small cross pattée or cross motifs appear in the field flanking the central device. The circumferential legend +PRAGA CIVITAS, identifying the mint city of Prague, is inscribed in Latin characters around the beaded border. The design is characteristic of the Prague deniers struck under Boleslaus II, reflecting the nascent Bohemian ecclesiastical and civic imagery of the period. |
