| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crude hammered field depicting a frontal bust or stylized figure within a roughly circular border. The design, characteristic of 13th-century Carinthian bracteate-influenced pfennigs, is rendered in low relief with heavily worn details. A partial inscription appears along the lower rim, partially legible due to the irregular flan and die wear. The overall composition reflects the primitive engraving style typical of provincial Austrian minting workshops of the period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A schematic architectural or heraldic motif is visible at center, possibly representing a tower or fortified gate set within a beaded inner border, surrounded by a raised outer rim with a cord or rope-like decorative edge. The design is deeply struck but heavily worn, consistent with the hammered technique and irregular flan characteristic of 13th-century Carinthian pfennigs from the Gutenwerth mint. The field shows pronounced surface porosity and patination typical of medieval silver coinage of this period. |

Thin bracteate pfennigs of this type circulated across the Alpine trade routes during the high medieval period, when Carinthia sat at a crossroads between Italian merchant traffic and the markets of the upper Danube. The duchy changed hands repeatedly through the 13th century — passing through the Spanheim line before falling to the Habsburgs in 1335 — and local pfennig production reflects that administrative instability in the variety of die workmanship found across surviving specimens.
CNA Cj97 places this squarely within the Gutenwerth ecclesiastical mint sequence, associated with the Augustinian house on the island in the Wörthersee.
