| Reverse description | As a bracteate struck from a single die on a thin silver flan, the reverse presents a mirror-image incuse impression of the obverse design. The standing princely figure and surrounding decorative elements appear in negative relief, with the beaded border reproduced in recessed form around the periphery of the irregularly shaped coin. The surface texture is characteristic of single-sided hammered bracteate production of 13th-century Silesian-Polish coinage. |
