Reverse description A prominent triangular architectural or church-like motif occupies the upper central field, interpreted as a stylized representation of a chapel or gabled structure, rendered in bold relief. Below the triangle, a series of horizontal lines and a small cross form a schematic façade, evoking a Romanesque ecclesiastical building. A partial and largely degenerate Latin legend surrounds the design within a beaded border, consistent with the primitive die-cutting conventions of late tenth-century Bohemian minting. The reverse design is associated with the Prague workshop and reflects the religious iconography characteristic of the reign of Boleslaus II.
