| Obverse description | Uniface thin silver bracteate struck on a broad, irregular flan with a plain raised rim. Central device depicts a standing or enthroned royal figure, likely a stylized effigy of Ottokar I, rendered in low relief in the Romanesque manner characteristic of early 13th-century Bohemian bracteates. The figure is flanked by decorative foliate or architectural elements, and the entire design is enclosed within a beaded or plain inner circle. The reverse shows a mirrored incuse impression of the obverse design, as is typical of bracteate coinage. |
