| Reverse description | A stylized architectural facade, depicting a fortified gateway or castle with two flanking towers surmounted by turrets and a central arched portal, rendered in bold low relief typical of 13th-century Austrian hammered coinage. Below the arch, three small roundels or pellets are visible in the field, a common decorative motif on contemporary Carinthian and Krainer pfennigs. The design is enclosed within a beaded or cable inner circle, and the irregular flan edge is characteristic of hand-struck medieval silver coinage. No legible legend is present on the reverse. |
