Obverse description Central field features a stylized frontal figure, likely a bust or schematic representation of the duke, enclosed within a plain inner circle. The figure is rendered in a highly abstracted Romanesque manner, with elongated vertical lines suggesting drapery or a hand raised in benediction, and a crescent or arc motif above. A small annulet appears to the right of the central device. The surrounding legend reads BOLEZLAUS DUX, partially legible and interspersed with triangular pellet ornaments around the beaded outer border.
