| Obverse description | Within a beaded inner circle, two figures depicted in combat or struggle: a standing armed knight holding a raised sword in his right hand, confronting a kneeling figure subdued beneath him, rendered in the archaic Romanesque style characteristic of early Polish medieval coinage. A small head or bust appears above the central scene, possibly representing a divine or regal witness. The surrounding field between the beaded circle and the irregular coin edge bears a partial Latin legend reading LODIZLAVS, interspersed with decorative cross and floral motifs. The overall die work is bold but primitive, with flat relief typical of hammered Piast dynasty deniers. |
