| Obverse description | Facing frontal figure of a ruler, likely a duke or bishop, depicted in a stylized Romanesque manner, standing between two smaller figures or columns, holding a long scepter or sword vertically in the center field. The figure wears a crown or diadem, with schematic facial features characteristic of Bohemian-Moravian medieval coinage. A beaded inner circle frames the central design, with a fragmentary Latin legend distributed around the outer field. |

| Reverse description | Central design featuring a stylized bust or head in profile within a beaded inner circle, rendered in a crude but expressive Romanesque die-engraving style typical of 11th–12th century Moravian deniers. Small symbols or cross elements appear in the field surrounding the central motif. A fragmentary and partially legible Latin legend runs along the outer border, interrupted by the irregular flan edge. The overall design reflects the provincial workshop character of the Olomouc duchy mint. |
