| Beschrijving voorzijde | A lion passant guardant facing right, its tail drawn between the hind legs and curling upward, rendered in relief within a raised outer ring. The figure is characteristic of the Austrian ducal heraldic tradition, with bold, simplified modeling typical of early 14th-century hammered coinage. The flan is irregular, as is common for hand-struck medieval pfennigs of this period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Frederick III (known as "the Fair") struck these pfennigs during a period when his claim to the throne of the Holy Roman Empire was actively contested. Following the disputed election of 1314, both Frederick and Louis IV of Bavaria claimed the imperial title simultaneously, leading to nearly a decade of intermittent warfare that culminated at the Battle of Mühldorf in 1322, where Frederick was captured and held prisoner for three years. Austrian ducal coinage continued under his brothers during his captivity.
The CNA B215 classification places this within the thin bracteate-influenced Viennese pfennig tradition, struck at the Vienna mint under ducal authority.
