Obverse description Central field depicts two standing figures facing one another in a confronted arrangement, rendered in the crude Romanesque style typical of mid-12th-century Polish bracteate-related coinage. The left figure, interpreted as the prince, holds a tall sword upright before him, while the right figure appears to be a seated or kneeling captive or subordinate. A vertical beaded border runs along the left side of the field, and small ornamental elements are visible between and around the figures. The composition is contained within an irregular beaded outer border following the uneven flan edge. No legend is present.
