Next to him right knee is a Bohemian Coat of Arms. On the outside of the coin are the words ": STEFANI : FRATR : COMITV . D . BASAIA : ARMA : DNOR : SLICOMV". In translation from Bohemian: "Stephen and his brothers, Earl of Bassano" On the reverse side is a lion of Bohemia, the old traditional Czech Lands, which was the combination of Bohemia, Moravia and Czech Silesia. Today, those three historic provinces compose the Czech Republic. The writings on the outside indicate "1520 + LVDOVICVS + PRIMVS + JEI + GRACIA + REX + BOEM +".
