Reverse description An armoured equestrian figure, identified as Saint Wenceslas, depicted in vigorous motion to the right on horseback, holding a lance or banner. The horse is shown at a gallop with expressive limb detail in the Romanesque style. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with fragmentary Latin inscription characters scattered in the outer field. The flat, irregular field surrounding the beaded border shows characteristic surface wear consistent with hammered medieval silver coinage.
