| Beschrijving voorzijde | Uniface bracteate struck on a thin, irregularly shaped flan with a scalloped or notched outer rim. The central design, rendered in low relief, depicts a standing or striding lion — the heraldic emblem of Bohemia — facing left within a circular inner border. The figure is executed in the Romanesque style typical of mid-13th-century Bohemian coinage, with stylized body contours and a curling tail. The surrounding field is plain, and no legend is present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Wenceslaus I ruled Bohemia during a period of intensive German colonization — he actively recruited settlers from the Holy Roman Empire, and the bracteate coinage of his reign reflects that cultural pull, drawing on south German minting traditions rather than older Přemyslid forms. Cach 707 is among the larger module issues of his reign, a deliberate choice that gave more surface area to the die cutter at the cost of fragility in the thin fabric.
Bracteates of this type are notoriously prone to cracking along the edges, and fully intact examples are genuinely uncommon.
