A distinctive denarius with a kneeling prince with a raised sword on the obverse, Vladislav's name in the rim: +VOLDI(SV).
The reverse depicts a head with long hair in front, with the name VOLDISV repeated in the rim.
Most often this type is found with St. Adalbert's name only in the reverse's obverse legend. Due to the content of the legend, this depiction has been classified in the literature as a representation of St. Adalbert. However, it is not necessarily so obvious. This is pointed out by B. Paszkiewicz, writing that the head from the reverse"does not look like a holy bishop, but rather a secular prince."
This theory gains significance especially in the context of the fact that the name did not have to be the signature of the issuer. It could have been a reference by the sons to their father's authority, presumably to justify their right to mint the coin. Invoked in this type may have been the name of Wladyslaw Odonic, father of Przemyslaw I and Boleslaw the Pious.
Piece of the weight of a denarius of brakteat, but with bilateral minting.
