背面描述	Uniface coin; the reverse is blank and uninscribed, showing only the incuse impression of the obverse design as is inherent to bracteate coinage struck from a single die on a thin silver flan. The surface is smooth and unworked, with natural flow lines from the hammering process visible across the field.

附加信息	Wenceslaus I ruled Bohemia during a period of intensive German colonization, actively recruiting settlers from the Holy Roman Empire — a policy that reshaped the kingdom's towns, mining operations, and, consequently, its coinage. Bohemian bracteates of this period reflect direct stylistic influence from German ecclesiastical minting traditions, the thin single-sided fabric being a practical response to the relatively modest silver content available before the great Kutná Hora deposits were exploited later in the century. Cach 708 is among the more precisely attributed types in the bracteate sequence, though die-to-die variation within the reign is considerable and misattributions between adjacent Cach numbers remain common in the trade.
