| Beschrijving voorzijde | Thin uniface bracteate struck on a broad, irregular flan with a characteristically lobed and scalloped rim typical of Bohemian bracteate coinage. The central design, set within a raised inner ring, depicts a crowned royal bust facing forward, rendered in a stylized Romanesque manner. The figure displays outstretched arms with hands or wings extended laterally, possibly representing an eagle or heraldic device associated with the Přemyslid dynasty. The relief is shallow but clear, with fine crown detail visible above the head. The field between the inner ring and the rim is flat and unadorned. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Wenceslas II inherited Bohemia in 1278 as a seven-year-old following his father Ottokar II's death at the Battle on the Marchfeld, with the kingdom effectively administered by regents until he assumed real power in the late 1280s. The bracteate denier — a single-sided thin silver striking — was the dominant small denomination of Bohemian commerce throughout this period, produced in large quantities to serve a silver-rich economy built on the Kutná Hora mines that Wenceslas would later reorganize under the Ius Regale Montanorum in 1300.
Cach 856 places this piece within the middle typological grouping of his reign's bracteate output.
