| Obverse description | Bracteate type struck on a thin, irregularly shaped silver flan with a lobated border. Central device depicts a panther or leonine beast passant to the right, rendered in high relief with pronounced musculature and a curled tail raised over its back; a small six-pointed star or cross appears to the upper left of the animal. The figure is enclosed within a lozenge or square frame set on its point, itself surrounded by two concentric raised rings that fill the broad flat field. The design is executed in the bold, schematic style characteristic of late 13th-century Carinthian bracteate coinage, with no legend. |
