| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a stylized crowned royal monogram or cipher of Casimir III the Great, rendered in a Gothic architectural style typical of mid-14th-century Polish coinage. The design is bold and schematic, characteristic of the hammered obol denomination struck at the Kraków mint. The monogram is set within a plain field on an irregularly shaped flan. The overall execution is crude yet purposeful, reflecting the small module and low denomination of the issue. |
