Aversbeschreibung Frontal bust of a crowned ruler, wearing a radiate or foliate crown, depicted in high relief characteristic of bracteate coinage. The figure is shown from the waist up, draped, with both arms extended laterally, each hand grasping a heraldic lily or fleur-de-lis sceptre. The design is contained within a raised inner circle, with the thin silver flan exhibiting the typical convex profile of a struck bracteate. No legend is present; the composition is purely figural in the Romanesque-Gothic transitional style.

Zusätzliche Informationen

Ottokar II came to the Bohemian throne in 1253 following the death of his father Wenceslaus I, and these thin-flan bracteates belong to the earliest phase of his reign — before his dramatic territorial expansion into Austria, Styria, and Carinthia transformed him into one of the most powerful rulers in Central Europe. Bracteate coinage of this type was a distinctly Central European phenomenon, produced by hammering silver so thin that the die impression on one face ghosted through as a mirror image on the other.

Cach 771 is among the more precisely attributed pieces in the Bohemian bracteate sequence, a series notoriously difficult to assign on the basis of stylistic analysis alone.
