| Beschrijving voorzijde | Standing frontal figure of Duke Otto I, depicted in stylized Romanesque manner, holding a long lance or scepter in his right hand and an orb or shield in his left. The figure is rendered in bold relief typical of 11th-century Bohemian hammered coinage, with schematic facial features and visible body armor or regalia. The Latin legend OTTO DVX is distributed across the field in archaic letterforms around the central figure. A cross motif appears in the upper right field. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central bust facing right, depicted in a highly stylized Romanesque fashion characteristic of Bohemian deniers of the mid-to-late 11th century. The bust is surrounded by a prominent long cross with a globus or orb at its base, rendered in bold hammered relief. The Latin legend WENCESLVS, invoking the patronage of Saint Wenceslas, is distributed around the field in archaic letterforms. The overall design reflects the devotional and dynastic iconography common to the Přemyslid coinage tradition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Otto I ruled Olomouc as a Přemyslid appanage prince during a period when Bohemian coinage was fragmenting into numerous regional issues, each dependent on local silver supply and the administrative reach of its prince. Cach 375 is among the scarcer Olomouc types, reflecting the limited output of a secondary Moravian mint operating well outside the main Bohemian minting centers at Prague.
Otto died in 1087, the same year his uncle Vratislaus II became the first King of Bohemia — a royal elevation that reshaped the political hierarchy these deniers had circulated within.
