| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a large Bohemian lion passant displayed within a cross-shaped framework, the arms of the cross dividing the field into four quadrants. The date 1562 is split across the lower two quadrants, with '15' to the left and '62' to the right, each numeral flanked by small rosette or floral ornaments. The lion's crown is prominently rendered at the top of the design, rising above the horizontal arm of the cross. The overall composition is typical of the small hammered coinage produced at the Kuttenberg (Kutná Hora) mint under Ferdinand I, struck on an irregularly shaped flan. |
