Beschrijving voorzijde Central field depicts a stylized bust or figural motif rendered in a crude Romanesque manner, enclosed within a beaded inner circle. Surrounding the central device is a further beaded border, with a fragmentary Latin legend distributed around the periphery in degenerate letterforms characteristic of Bohemian-Moravian bracteate-influenced coinage of the late 11th to early 12th century. The overall design is strongly stylized and difficult to read due to the archaic die-cutting technique.

Beschrijving keerzijde A plain cross pattee with a small pellet in each of the four quarters formed by the cross arms, all contained within a single beaded circle. The cross is centrally positioned in the field with a slightly raised relief, typical of Moravian deniers and obols of the Olomouc duchy. The design is simple and bold, consistent with Romanesque ecclesiastical artistic conventions of the period. No legend is present on the reverse.

Aanvullende informatie

Cach 500 is attributed to the Olomouc duchy during a period when Moravia was repeatedly subdivided among Přemyslid princes, making precise ruler attribution genuinely difficult — the coin's assignment to a sixty-year bracket reflects that uncertainty rather than any cataloging oversight. Olomouc obols of this era were struck in small quantities for local exchange, and surviving examples with clear dies are scarce.
