Obverse description Single-sided bracteate struck in thin silver sheet, displaying a frontal helmeted bust of Duke Premislaus II (Przemysł II) in the center of the field. The figure is depicted wearing a conical helmet surmounted by a small cross, with stylized facial features rendered in the characteristic flat, linear manner of 13th-century Polish bracteate coinage. A sword or scepter appears to the right of the bust, while additional heraldic or symbolic elements flank the figure on the left. The design is contained within a plain, irregularly circular border typical of hammered bracteate fabric.
