| Additional information |
Albert I acquired Styria jointly with his brother Rudolf II under the partition of 1282 — the same division that locked Habsburg dynastic control over the Austrian duchies for generations. His coins from this period circulated alongside those of Rudolf, making single-issuer attribution genuinely difficult without die study. CNA D57 specimens frequently show irregular flans, a product of hand-cut blanks rather than any particular mint failure.
