| Obverse description | Uniface bracteate struck in thin silver sheet, displaying a crowned royal helmet in high relief at center, surmounted by a broad crown with prominent fleurons. Beneath the helmet, a stylized visor with three pellets arranged in triangular formation is visible, flanked by two additional pellets in the field. The design is contained within a raised inner circle, with the broad, flat flan exhibiting the characteristic shallow relief of Bohemian bracteate coinage of the second half of the 13th century. |
