One interesting fact about the Denier Bracteate - Ottokar II (medium) ND (1260-1278) from Kingdom of Bohemia made of Silver is that it features a unique combination of both Latin and Czech inscriptions. The obverse side of the coin bears the Latin inscription "Ottokarus II Dei Gratia Rex" ("Ottokar II, King by the grace of God"), while the reverse side features the Czech inscription "Kralovstvi Bozmu" ("Kingdom of God").
