Denier Bracteate - Ottokar II small

Ottokar II's tenure as Margrave of Moravia before ascending the Bohemian throne saw a deliberate expansion of minting activity, partly to fund his aggressive campaigns into Austria and Styria. The bracteate format — struck on a single thin flan from one die — was already declining elsewhere in Central Europe by the 1250s, making Moravia something of a conservative holdout for the type.

Cach 932 distinguishes this as the smaller module within Ottokar's Moravian bracteate sequence, a distinction that likely reflects a deliberate weight reduction rather than simple die variation.
