| Beschrijving keerzijde | The heraldic device of the mintmaster rendered in low relief on the reverse of this hammered pfennig, visible as a stylised figure or animal motif within the irregular flan. The strike is weak in areas due to the hand-hammering technique, resulting in incomplete design transfer. No inscription or legend accompanies the device. The surface shows typical flow lines and die-wear consistent with medieval Austrian coinage of the reign of Duke Albrecht II. |

Albrecht II — known as "the Lame" due to a paralytic condition that confined him largely to Vienna from the 1330s onward — nonetheless oversaw a period of significant territorial consolidation for the Habsburgs. His pfennigs circulated through a duchy that had recently absorbed Carinthia and Carniola, and the coinage had to serve an expanded and economically active region. The thin, bracteate-influenced fabric of these pieces made them notoriously fragile in circulation, and survivors without cracks or edge losses are genuinely uncommon.
