Obverse description A hare passant to the right depicted in high relief within the irregular flan, rendered in the bold, simplified style characteristic of medieval Austrian bracteate-influenced pfennigs. The animal is shown with elongated ears laid back along the spine, a prominent circular eye, and sturdy haunches, conveying a sense of forward movement. The figure occupies the majority of the field, with no surrounding legend or inscription. The die-work reflects the local Viennese mint tradition of the mid-14th century, with strong contour lines and flat interior modeling.
