Beschrijving voorzijde A lion passant to the right occupies the central field, rendered in a bold, archaic Romanesque style typical of late 12th-century German bracteate-influenced coinage. The animal is depicted with exaggerated musculature and a stylized mane, its tail curling upward behind the hindquarters. Above the lion, a row of pellets or beaded ornaments forms an arc suggesting a crown or architectural canopy. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border that follows the characteristic four-pinched outline of the Vierzipfliger flan. No legend is present; the design relies entirely on the heraldic lion device.

Aanvullende informatie

The "Vierzipfliger" type — named by collectors for its distinctive four-cornered flan shape, a product of irregular cutting rather than any intentional design — emerged from the Laufenburg branch of the Habsburgs during a period when the family's Rhine holdings were still being consolidated against competing ecclesiastical and secular claims. The Laufenburg line itself died out in 1408, leaving these early deniers as the sole numismatic record of a collateral branch that never achieved the dynastic dominance of their Austrian cousins.
