Beschrijving voorzijde A stylized crown occupies the central field, its upper rim adorned with a row of prominent globules arranged to suggest peacock-tail feathers, flanked by two large pellets in the field. The design is rendered in low relief typical of late medieval Swiss hammered bracteat-style coinage, with the coin's characteristic four pinched lobes framing the devices.

Beschrijving keerzijde Blank reverse, as expected for a uniface hammered Pfennig of this type, showing only the incuse impression of the obverse design transferred through the thin silver flan during striking.

Aanvullende informatie

Zofingen's civic minting rights in this period existed within a narrow window of autonomy — the city had passed between Habsburg and Bernese influence repeatedly through the fourteenth century, and these small bracteate issues reflect a municipality asserting local economic presence while its political future remained genuinely uncertain. The reference to Leopold IV places this within the Habsburgs' fractured oversight of their Swiss territories following the dynastic splits after Leopold III's death at Sempach in 1386.
