| Beschrijving voorzijde | A stylized animal, most probably a panther or goat, depicted facing left within a beaded inner circle, enclosed by a further pearl border near the periphery. The creature is rendered in the archaic, schematic style typical of medieval Austrian bracteate-influenced pfennigs, with visible horns and body contours in high relief. The surrounding field is plain and uninscribed. The flan is irregular and characteristic of hand-hammered medieval coinage. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Uniface strike with a smooth, incuse reverse showing the negative impression of the obverse design, as is typical of this thin hammered pfennig type. No legends, symbols, or design elements are present on the reverse. The surface displays natural flow lines and die pressure marks consistent with medieval hammered production. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Albert I of Habsburg ruled Styria as duke from 1282 until his murder in 1308, and his co-issue with Frederick III — more precisely Frederick the Fair, who contested the German kingship against Louis IV in a civil war lasting nearly a decade — places this pfennig squarely within one of the most politically turbulent periods in Habsburg consolidation. The thin, broad fabric of these Styrian bracteate-style pfennigs made them extraordinarily fragile in circulation, and surviving examples without splits or edge losses are genuinely scarce.
