Obverse description Single-sided bracteate depicting a crowned facing bust of Duke Premislaus II (Przemysł II), rendered in a crude, schematic style typical of 13th-century Polish bracteate coinage. The ruler's effigy is shown frontally, wearing a prominent crown with three fleur-de-lis-style points rising above the head. The facial features are stylized and simplified, with minimal relief. To the right of the bust appears a schematic symbol or heraldic device, possibly an eagle motif or sceptre rendered in abbreviated form. The design occupies a plain, slightly irregular round flan with a raised rim.
