| Reverse description | A half-figure of Saint Wenceslas facing right, rendered in the primitive Romanesque style of late 11th-century Bohemian coinage, holding a prominent cross in the right hand. The figure is depicted with stylized drapery and a crowned or nimbed head, consistent with the conventional iconography of the patron saint of Bohemia on Přemyslid deniers. The surrounding peripheral legend reads SWENCESLAVS, identifying the saint, with the lettering distributed in irregular Latin characters around the coin's edge. |
