Denier - Svatopluk

Svatopluk of Olomouc ruled as duke of Bohemia from 1107 until his assassination in 1109, but this denier dates to his earlier tenure governing the Olomouc appanage under his cousin Bořivoj II. The Přemyslid practice of distributing Moravian territories among junior family members produced distinct regional coinages, and Olomouc maintained its own minting activity largely independent of Prague throughout this period. Cach 426 is among the more sparsely documented types in the Přemyslid denier sequence, with surviving examples few enough that die linkage studies remain incomplete.
