| Obverse description | Frontal enthroned figure of the ruler depicted in a stylized Romanesque manner, seated on a throne with arms extended, wearing a crown and royal robes. The figure holds regalia in each hand, rendered in the flat, hieratic style typical of Bohemian deniers of the mid-twelfth century. The field is plain with no visible legend. |

| Additional information |
Vladislaus I received the royal title from Frederick Barbarossa in 1158 as a direct reward for military support during the siege of Milan — the elevation from duke to king was personal and non-hereditary, expiring at his death. Deniers struck during this reign therefore carry a royal title that technically died with him in 1172, a dynastic footnote with no direct successor claim.
Cach 612 is among the better-documented Bohemian denier attributions from this period, though die-link studies remain incomplete relative to later medieval Bohemian issues.
