Cracov mint
NOTE: The coin was certainly made before the Mongol invasion in 1241. Its affiliation to the minting of Prince Leszek the White is hypothetical.
OBVERSE: Half figure in robe with wide sleeves, facing right, holding lily sceptre in front of her. In the fields three rings.
NOTE: A depiction of a ruler with a lily scepter, which can be both the staff of Aaron (the sign of God's chosen ruler) and the rod of justice (the sign of a judge ruler).
