| Obverse description | Thin uniface bracteate struck on a broad, irregularly shaped silver flan with a characteristic raised rim. The central design, rendered in low relief typical of Moravian bracteate coinage, depicts a stylized heraldic eagle or lion passant facing left, executed in a bold, simplified medieval artistic style. The figure occupies the central field within the concave depression formed by the hammering process. The surrounding flat rim is plain and unadorned, with no legend or inscription present. |
