| Obverse description | Uniface bracteate struck in thin silver, bearing a centrally positioned heraldic eagle displayed with wings spread, rendered in the bold, stylized manner characteristic of Moravian bracteate coinage of the late 13th century. The eagle's body is depicted frontally with pronounced detail in the breast and wing feathers, set within a slightly raised inner circle. The field surrounding the central device is plain, and the flan is irregular in outline as typical of hammered bracteate production under Ottokar II. |
