| Obverse description | Crude hammered field depicting what appears to be a seated or enthroned figure rendered in low relief in the Romanesque style typical of 12th-century Moravian deniers. The central motif shows a frontal or semi-frontal bust or figure with schematic drapery details, consistent with a ruler or ecclesiastical personage. The die workmanship is rough, with irregular flan edges characteristic of hand-struck medieval coinage. Surface patination is heavy, obscuring fine detail. No legible legend is apparent on this side. |

| Reverse description | A bust facing left or right in profile, rendered in the primitive Romanesque style characteristic of 12th-century Moravian bracteate-influenced deniers, occupying the central field. The figure displays schematically incised hair or head covering and simplified drapery at the shoulder. The relief is low and the strike uneven, consistent with hammered coinage of the period. Beaded or plain border traces may surround the central motif, though flan irregularities obscure the periphery. No legible inscription is discernible. |
