| Additional information |
Vladislaus I received the title of king — rather than duke — directly from Frederick Barbarossa at the 1158 Diet of Regensburg, the elevation granted in exchange for Bohemian military support in Barbarossa's Italian campaigns. The royal title was personal, not hereditary, and lapsed at his death in 1174, leaving Bohemia a duchy again until 1198. Coinage from this reign therefore occupies an uncommon constitutional moment: a kingdom that officially ceased to exist.
Cach 601 is among the thinner-documented varieties of the series, with surviving specimens concentrated in a handful of Central European collections.
