Denier - Vladislaus I

Vladislaus I received the hereditary royal title from Frederick Barbarossa in 1158 as a reward for Bohemian military support during the siege of Milan — the kingdom's elevation from duchy formalized through a bargain, not inheritance. Deniers of this reign mark the transitional decade when Bohemian coinage was asserting a distinctly regal rather than ducal identity.

Cach 607 is among the more precisely attributed types in this reign, though die-link studies remain incomplete. Surface quality on surviving examples varies sharply; the thin fabric common to Bohemian deniers of this period made them vulnerable even to light handling.
