| Obverse description | Central field features a stylized architectural motif consisting of a triangular gable or pediment above a rectangular structure, rendered in a highly schematic, early medieval manner typical of Bohemian deniers of the Přemyslid period. The design is divided into horizontal registers, with a prominent chevron or roof-like element in the upper portion and a stepped or columnar arrangement below. A degraded Latin legend, largely unintelligible due to the degenerate die-cutting characteristic of this issue, surrounds the central device. The flan is irregular and shows typical hammered fabric with uneven surfaces. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays a central medallion containing a cross with globules or pellets in the angles, encircled by a beaded inner ring. Surrounding this central motif, a degraded and partially legible Latin legend occupies the outer field, rendered in the degenerate letterforms characteristic of Bohemian deniers of the early eleventh century. A star or rosette ornament appears at the top of the design, serving as a dividing element between the legend segments. The overall execution reflects the primitive engraving style of the Přemyslid mint workshops of this period. |
