Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Denier Bracteate - Ottokar II (medium) ND (1260-1278) from Kingdom of Bohemia is that it features a unique blend of Gothic and Romanesque architectural elements in its design. The obverse side of the coin depicts a crowned effigy of King Ottokar II, while the reverse side features a stylized representation of the Bohemian coat of arms, which includes a shield with three lions and a crowned helm. The use of these architectural elements and the intricate details in the design make this coin a notable example of medieval coinage.
