| Additional information |
Montfort-Peggau was one of the smallest and most obscure lordships within the Holy Roman Empire, a cadet branch of the House of Montfort that retained minting rights well past the point where such privileges made economic sense. A silver coin of 0.52 g was pushing the absolute lower boundary of what could be practically struck — flans this thin were notoriously prone to splitting during the hubbing process, which accounts for the consistently poor centering seen across surviving examples of KM#170.
