| Beschrijving voorzijde | Enthroned frontal figure of King Wenceslaus I, depicted in high relief within a beaded inner circle, wearing a crown and royal regalia. The ruler is shown in a formal, hieratic pose with arms extended to either side, holding what appear to be royal attributes. The figure is rendered in the Romanesque stylistic tradition characteristic of Bohemian bracteate coinage of the mid-13th century, with bold, slightly abstract modeling of the body and drapery. The field surrounding the inner circle is plain, and the irregular flan edge shows characteristic splits typical of thin bracteate production. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Wenceslaus I spent much of his reign in open conflict with his own son Přemysl, who led a baronial revolt that temporarily forced the king from power in 1248. Coinage continued to be struck throughout the crisis, though attributing specific dies to either side of that rupture remains unsettled. Cach 740 represents one of the larger bracteate types from his reign — these thin, single-sided pieces were technically demanding to strike without tearing the flan, and Bohemian examples frequently show die-edge cracking as a result.
