| Reverse description | The reverse presents a bold, stylized design featuring a large central horizontal band of ring-and-pellet ornaments dividing the field. Above this band, an elaborate interlaced or vegetal motif rendered in high relief dominates the upper portion of the flan, while the lower field displays further schematic linear and curvilinear decorative elements. A beaded border runs around the periphery of the irregularly shaped flan. The overall style reflects the Romanesque artistic tradition of the Piast court workshops, with strong emphasis on geometric patterning over naturalistic representation. |
