Obverse description Central field dominated by a bold, stylized letter 'M' rendered in an uncial or gothic script, flanked by the initials 'B' and 'P' in the lower flanking fields, likely abbreviating the city name and issuing authority. The coin exhibits an irregular, lobate or scalloped border characteristic of small hammered bracteate-style issues of the period. The design is executed in low relief with the broadly struck, somewhat crude workmanship typical of late medieval Silesian municipal coinage.
