| Reverse description | Frontal facing figure of Saint Wenceslas, patron saint of Bohemia, depicted in a hieratic Romanesque style with stylized robes and regalia. The saint holds a lance or staff in one hand and an orb or cross in the other, rendered in a flat, linear engraving technique typical of 11th-century Bohemian coinage. The legend SWENC ELV, referencing Saint Wenceslas, is distributed in the field around the central figure in fragmented groups. The irregular flan displays typical die-striking characteristics of hammered medieval silver coinage. |
