| Obverse description | Enthroned frontal figure of Duke Leopold VI, depicted in regal posture with right hand resting on hip and left hand bearing a lily scepter. The ducal effigy is rendered in a stylized Romanesque manner characteristic of early 13th-century Austrian bracteate-influenced coinage. A double circular legend frames the design, with the inscription distributed across two concentric lines in the outer field. The die work is bold and deeply struck, consistent with the hammered silver pfennig tradition of the Styrian-Austrian mints. |
