| Beschrijving voorzijde | A heraldic lion rampant facing left occupies the central field, rendered in a bold, primitive hammered style typical of medieval Austrian pfennigs. The beast is depicted with its forepaws raised and head turned, showing characteristic stylized musculature. The design is contained within a plain outer ring border. No legend or inscription is present on this side, consistent with anonymous bracteate-influenced Austrian pfennig coinage of the early 14th century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick III (known as Frederick the Fair) struck these pfennigs during a period when his claim to the German throne was fiercely contested — he and Louis IV of Bavaria fought a civil war over the kingship that culminated at the Battle of Mühldorf in 1322, where Frederick was captured and held prisoner until 1325. Coin production continued in his name throughout, the duchy's minting apparatus functioning independently of the dynastic chaos above it.
The CNA B227 classification places this within the Wiener Pfennig tradition, the thin bracteate-influenced silver coinage that dominated Austrian circulation through the fourteenth century.
