Beschrijving voorzijde Central field depicts a stylized lion passant facing left, rendered in high relief in the characteristic Romanesque manner of Moravian bracteate-influenced deniers. The lion is shown with a prominent rounded head, outstretched forelegs, and a bifurcated tail curling upward. The design is enclosed within a plain inner circle, itself surrounded by a raised beaded or cable border. The flan is irregular, typical of hammered medieval coinage of the period.

Aanvullende informatie

Ottokar II ruled Moravia before ascending to the Bohemian throne in 1253, and deniers struck under his authority reflect the administrative ambitions of a ruler who would eventually control territory stretching from Bohemia to the Adriatic. The Cach 906 type belongs to a minting tradition increasingly influenced by Bohemian pfennig coinage, as Ottokar systematically consolidated mint policy across his expanding domains.

His death at the Battle of Marchfeld in 1278 — at the hands of Rudolf of Habsburg — abruptly ended a reign that had made Bohemia the dominant Central European power of its generation. Coins struck in the final years of the 1247–1278 bracket are virtually indistinguishable from earlier issues by surface examination alone.
