| Obverse description | Standing frontal figure of the duke, depicted in full length wearing a short tunic, holding a lance or staff in the right hand and a shield in the left hand. The figure is flanked on either side by small six-pointed stars or rosettes in the field. A circular legend surrounds the central design, rendered in crude hammered style typical of 13th-century Polish bracteate-influenced deniers. |
