| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly worn and weakly struck surface, revealing the incuse ghost impression of the obverse design, as is characteristic of thin, single-side dominated hammered pfennigs of this period. A faint outline of a quadruped, possibly a lion passant or panther, can be discerned within the central field, likely referencing the heraldic emblem of the Margraviate of Istria-Carniola. The flan edges are irregular and uneven, reflecting the rudimentary striking technique of the era. |
