| Obverse description | Within a beaded inner circle, a seated frontal figure, likely a margravial effigy, depicted in a stylized Romanesque manner with arms extended and floral or foliate sprigs flanking the figure on either side. The design is rendered in low relief typical of mid-13th century Bohemian and Moravian bracteate-influenced deniers. The field is plain with no visible legend. The overall composition is enclosed within a raised beaded border. |

| Additional information |
Vladislaus III ruled Moravia for barely two years before dying in 1247, likely at the Battle of Leitha where a Moravian force fought alongside the Bohemians against Hungary's Béla IV. His coinage output was correspondingly thin, and Cach 895 is among the scarcest of the Přemyslid margravial series. The political situation — Moravia functioning as a semi-autonomous march under Bohemian overlordship during a period of active dynastic conflict — meant minting priorities shifted rapidly.
