Reverse description The reverse displays a stylized chapel or church facade motif at the top of the inner field, rendered as a triangular roof above a horizontal bar, a design closely associated with the Prague church type of Bohemian deniers. Below the architectural element, the field carries a retrograde or irregular inscription across two horizontal lines. The surrounding legend, composed of large, crudely cut Latin letters, runs around the entire coin periphery. The overall design is typical of late 10th-century Bohemian hammered silver coinage, reflecting Anglo-Saxon and Carolingian artistic influences.
