Denier - Boleslaus II the Pious

Boleslaus II consolidated Bohemian ecclesiastical independence during his reign, securing the founding of the Prague bishopric in 973 — a political achievement that coincided with a marked expansion of the Bohemian minting operation. These deniers circulated during a period when Bohemia was actively integrating into the broader Ottonian economic sphere, and the coinage itself reflects that positioning.

Cach 1020 is among the more frequently documented types in the series, though die studies by Czech numismatists have identified considerable variation in die execution across the reign's span.
