| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bracteate-style obverse displaying a raised square or lozenge-shaped geometric device at center, formed by incuse impressions characteristic of the 'bloß Geld' (plain money) type. The flan is irregular and shows the typical concave distortion of a thinly hammered medieval silver piece. The field is unadorned, with no legend or inscription, consistent with the anonymous, non-figural coinage issued under Duke Albrecht III of Austria. The fabric is notably crude, reflecting the small module and minimal silver content of this fractional denomination. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is essentially blank and featureless, presenting a convex, unmarked silver surface with the irregular flan edges characteristic of hand-hammered medieval coinage. No design, legend, or device is discernible, as is typical of the bracteate-influenced Hälbling type where only a single-sided impression is intended. The surface shows natural flow lines and die stress from the hammering process, with patina consistent with long burial or circulation. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Albrecht III's "bloß Geld" — meaning roughly "bare money" or "plain money" — hälblings were struck as part of a deliberate monetary simplification following decades of debased and fractionally minted small coinage that had eroded public trust in Austrian currency. At 0.22g, these are among the most fragile survivors of medieval Austrian minting practice, and examples without significant flan cracks or edge losses are genuinely uncommon.
