| Obverse description | Two heraldic creatures conjoined back-to-back in the field: the forepart of a lion to the left and the forepart of an eagle to the right, their bodies joined at the hindquarters. The design, characteristic of the Viennese Pfennig tradition under Ottokar II, is rendered in a bold, stylised manner typical of 13th-century Austrian hammered coinage. No legend or inscription is present. The irregular flan shows typical characteristics of hand-struck medieval silver. |
