| Beschrijving voorzijde | Armored bust of Count Ernest of Montfort facing right, wearing elaborate plate armor with decorative ornamentation and a flowing wig in the baroque style. The mintmaster's initials 'IH' appear below the truncation as a mint official's mark. A circular Latin legend runs along the periphery, interrupted by the bust. The portrait is rendered in high relief with fine detail typical of 18th-century German gold coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Montfort-Peggau was a tiny Austrian county whose coinage rights were exercised by Maximilian Joseph Ernest during a period when the Holy Roman Empire was still tolerating — if increasingly scrutinizing — the autonomous minting privileges of minor lords. The county itself was a remnant jurisdiction, geographically insignificant, and its gold ducat issues were almost certainly struck in small numbers for ceremonial or diplomatic purposes rather than commercial circulation.
KM#158 is poorly documented in terms of individual mintage figures, which is itself telling for a county of this scale.
