| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse depicts a standing king, bareheaded, shown in three-quarter view receiving a banner from Saint Stefan, the patron saint, who stands to his right holding a book of gospels adorned with five gems. The figures are rendered in the Byzantine hieratic style typical of medieval Serbian coinage, with the saint and king facing one another in a formal investiture composition. A Latin legend encircles the design, reading STEFAN REX S : STEFAN, identifying both the ruler and the saint. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a frontal enthroned figure of Christ Pantocrator, depicted full-length seated on a high-backed jewelled throne with footrest, rendered in the Byzantine manner. Christ is shown bearded with a nimbus, raising his right hand in benediction and holding a jewelled book of gospels decorated with five gems in his left hand. The Christogram IC XC flanks the figure in the upper left and right fields respectively, a convention standard to Byzantine-influenced Serbian medieval coinage. The overall style closely follows the Venetian grosso prototype widely imitated across the medieval Balkans. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Dragutin ruled as king of Serbia from 1276 until a riding accident in 1282 left him partially incapacitated, at which point he abdicated in favor of his brother Milutin — an arrangement that would generate bitter dynastic conflict for decades. This coinage belongs entirely to that brief window. The double cross type reflects the influence of Latin monetary conventions filtering into the Serbian court through Dragutin's marriage to Catherine, daughter of Stephen V of Hungary, a connection that brought both political alignment and artistic models westward across the Danube.
