| Obverse description | Central field depicts a stylized bust or figure in profile facing right, rendered in the crude but characteristic hammered style of medieval Austrian pfennigs. The effigy is surrounded by a partial Latin legend reading XER[---][---]AES, much of which is worn or off-flan due to the irregular flan shape. The design is enclosed within a beaded or plain inner circle, with the peripheral inscription distributed around the circumference. The overall style reflects the debased artistic conventions of the Friesach pfennig tradition of the early 13th century. |
