| Obverse description | Within a beaded inner circle, the Gothic monogram letters 'W' and 'n' (for Wenceslas) occupy the central field, flanked by two rosettes positioned at left and right and three trefoils arranged above and below, all rendered in a bold Gothic style characteristic of 14th-century Brabantine coinage. The surrounding outer legend runs between the inner beaded circle and the irregular hammered rim, separated by a dotted border. The overall composition reflects the heraldic simplicity typical of small billon mijten of the period. |
