| Beschrijving voorzijde | Uniface bracteate struck in thin silver sheet with a central figural composition in high relief. The design depicts a seated or enthroned figure, likely a royal personage, flanked by two smaller figures or attendants. Above the central figure, a cross or architectural element is visible, rendered in the schematic, stylized manner characteristic of Bohemian bracteates of the mid-13th century. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded inner border, with the flan exhibiting the characteristic irregular, scalloped edge typical of hammered bracteate coinage. The relief is strongly convex on the obverse, consistent with the single-die striking method used for bracteates. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Wenceslaus I ruled Bohemia through a period of intense German colonial settlement — the so-called Ostsiedlung — which reshaped the kingdom's economy and drove genuine demand for small silver coinage. Bracteates of this reign were struck on thin, single-die flans, a technique that made forgery easier but production far cheaper, and Bohemian mints leaned heavily on the type throughout the mid-thirteenth century.
Cach 747 is among the more frequently encountered attributions from this reign, though die-to-die variation within the bracteate series means condition assessment hinges almost entirely on flan integrity rather than surface wear.
