| Reverse description | The reverse displays two prominent vertical architectural elements, likely stylized towers or columns, flanking a central figure or symbol, consistent with the representation of a fortified structure or gateway associated with Carinthian ducal iconography. A crowned or mitred bust may be discernible between the columns, rendered in a schematic, relief style. A small annulet or cross motif appears in the lower field. The design is unframed and occupies the full irregular flan, with no surrounding inscription. The execution is characteristic of mid-12th-century hammered bracteate-influenced pfennig coinage from the Austrian duchies. |
