| Obverse description | Central field depicts a stylized heraldic lily (fleur-de-lis type) surmounted by a small cross or star-like ornament, rendered in low relief in the characteristic bracteate technique. The design is enclosed within a raised beaded inner border, with the outer rim showing the typical irregular flan edge of hammered bracteate coinage. The motif is presented in a highly schematic, simplified Gothic style consistent with late 13th-century Bohemian bracteate production. No legend is present; the design is entirely pictorial. The overall composition is centrally placed within the concave field. |
