| Reverse description | The reverse presents two facing bust effigies in the upper field, rendered frontally in the schematic Romanesque style, with pellet ornaments between and around the heads. Below the busts, a horizontal line divides the field, beneath which appears an arcade or architectural motif with rounded arches supported by columns, a design element associated with ecclesiastical or palatial iconography of the Piast period. The lower register contains a beaded border strip. The flan is irregular in shape, consistent with hand-hammered medieval coinage of the period. |
