| Reverse description | The reverse presents a figural composition in low relief, likely depicting a seated or standing regal or ecclesiastical figure, consistent with Moravian denier types of the Ottokar II period catalogued under Cach#974. The image is heavily worn and the flan irregular, rendering precise iconographic details difficult to discern, though the general posture and compositional layout follow standard Moravian margravial coinage conventions. The peripheral Latin legend MARCHIO MORAVIE encircles the central device, proclaiming the issuer's title as Margrave of Moravia. Letter forms are characteristic of thirteenth-century Bohemian-Moravian epigraphy. The field shows natural surface irregularities consistent with hammered silver production. |
