Beschrijving voorzijde A fantastical winged quadruped displayed in the field, its body rendered in bold relief characteristic of Austrian bracteate-style pfennigs. The creature bears a crowned human head in profile, with stylized drapery or feathering indicated by incised linear detail. The design fills the irregular flan, with the figure occupying the central field in a dynamic, archaic medieval artistic style typical of 13th-century Viennese mint production.

Aanvullende informatie

Frederick II of Austria — "the Quarrelsome" — spent much of his reign in open conflict with Emperor Frederick II Hohenstaufen, and these small bracteate-style pfennigs were struck during a period when ducal authority in Austria was being aggressively asserted against imperial interference. The Vienna mint was the primary issuing point, though attribution of individual dies to specific minting locations remains contested among specialists working with the CNA corpus.

Frederick was killed at the Battle of the Leitha in 1246, dying without an heir and extinguishing the Babenberg line entirely.
