| Obverse description | A stylized dragon depicted in profile facing left, rendered in low relief in the typical medieval Styrian brakteat-influenced style. The creature's body is compact and schematically rendered, with visible limbs and a curved tail. The design is framed by a beaded border partially visible along the coin's irregular periphery. The overall execution is characteristic of Austrian hammered pfennigs of the early fourteenth century. |
