| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing ducal head positioned above a stylized lily, the lateral petals of which are replaced by two confronted horse heads, a characteristic Styrian heraldic device. The central motif is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, itself surrounded by an outer fretwork or lattice border. The design is rendered in the angular, high-relief style typical of medieval Austrian hammered bracteate-influenced pfennigs. The irregular flan and variable strike are consistent with hand-hammered production of the mid-fourteenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick III of Styria — known as "the Fair" — spent much of his reign locked in a bitter dispute with Louis IV of Bavaria over the Holy Roman Imperial throne, a conflict that destabilized Habsburg financial administration across the Austrian duchies for decades. Coin production during this period was fragmented across multiple minting authorities, and Styrian issues show corresponding inconsistency in die quality and silver fineness. CNA D119 types frequently exhibit irregular flans, a product of hand-cut blanks rather than any particular mint negligence.
