| Obverse description | Enthroned frontal figure of the ruler, depicted in regal attire with a crown, seated in a rigid, hieratic posture characteristic of Romanesque coinage. The arms are extended outward, each hand holding unidentified regalia or resting on the throne arms. The design is struck in low relief on an irregular flan typical of hammered medieval deniers. |

| Reverse description | Two crowned figures standing facing one another, flanked on each side by a stylized tower or castle, forming a symmetrical heraldic composition. The figures appear in regal dress with crowns, likely representing a duke and bishop or two royal personages, a common motif on Bohemian deniers of the period. The design is rendered in a flat, schematic Romanesque style on an irregularly shaped hammered flan. |
