| Obverse description | Standing frontal effigy of the Duke in regal attire, holding a sword in his right hand and a shield in his left, rendered in the crude but expressive style characteristic of early 13th-century Carinthian bracteate coinage. The figure is presented in a stylized, flat relief typical of hammered medieval pfennigs. The irregular flan edges and variable strike quality reflect hand-production techniques of the period. |
