Obverse description Frontal bust of a ruler or bishop rendered in the primitive Romanesque style characteristic of early Bohemian deniers, depicted facing forward with a large schematic face featuring prominent pellet eyes and a broad nose. The figure appears robed, with stylized drapery indicated by vertical engraved lines at the chest. Flanking the bust are rudimentary decorative elements including pellets and cross-like motifs in the field. The overall design is executed in a bold, flat relief typical of early medieval Bohemian hammered coinage, with an irregular flan and no legible circumscription.

Reverse description Seated figure rendered in a schematic, primitive Romanesque style, depicted frontally with crossed arms holding what appear to be symbolic attributes, possibly a sceptre or staff to the right. The head is surmounted by a radiate or spiked crown indicated by short lines above, and the lower body is draped in a broad garment with deeply incised folds. The composition fills the irregular flan, with minimal field decoration and no legible surrounding legend, consistent with the archaic engraving conventions of early 11th-century Bohemian deniers.
