| Obverse description | Uniface bracteate struck on a thin silver flan with characteristic concave cupping. The central device depicts a stylized frontal bust, likely a crowned royal or margravial figure, rendered in a simplified Romanesque manner. The crown is indicated by a crenellated or trefoil-topped form above the head, flanked by raised foliate or wing-like extensions on either side of the figure. The field is plain and unlettered, enclosed within a raised inner border ring, with an irregular lobed or dentilated outer rim typical of Moravian bracteate coinage of the late 13th century. |
