Obverse description Central field depicts a rampant lion passant within a beaded inner circle, rendered in the bold, somewhat crude style characteristic of medieval Bosnian hammered coinage. The lion, a heraldic emblem of the Bosnian kingdom, faces left with head turned forward and tail raised, its body rendered with visible textural detail. Surrounding the inner beaded border is a circular legend in uncial Latin characters separated by cross pattée stops, reading: MONETA ‡ AUREA ‡ REGIS ‡ STEPHANI, translating as 'Gold currency of King Stephen.' The entire composition is enclosed within an outer beaded border.
