| Beschrijving voorzijde | Uniface bracteate struck on a thin silver flan with a raised circular border. The central device depicts a frontal enthroned figure, identified as King Ottokar I, shown in a schematic Romanesque style typical of early 13th-century Bohemian coinage. The figure appears robed and seated, with outstretched arms holding regalia — a sceptre to one side and what appears to be an orb or lily on the other. The design is contained within a plain raised inner ring, with the irregular flan edge exhibiting characteristic clipping and fissures associated with hammered bracteate production. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Uniface bracteate; the reverse is blank and uninscribed, showing only the incuse mirror impression of the obverse design as a result of the single-die hammered striking technique inherent to bracteate coinage. The thin silver flan displays natural flow lines and surface texture consistent with medieval hand-hammered production. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ottokar I secured the hereditary kingship of Bohemia through the Golden Bull of Sicily in 1212, issued by Frederick II in exchange for Bohemian political support — a transaction that permanently elevated the Přemyslid dynasty from elective to hereditary rule. Bracteate coinage of this reign reflects the broader Central European shift toward thin single-sided pennies, a minting convention dominant in German-speaking territories that Bohemia adopted under heavy imperial cultural influence.
Cach 681 is among the more precisely attributable types from this transitional period, though the 1210–1230 window spans both pre- and post-Golden Bull production.
