| Obverse description | Facing helmeted head of a ruler depicted in a crude, stylized manner characteristic of late 13th to early 14th century Austrian bracteate-influenced pfennig coinage. The face is rendered frontally with schematic facial features enclosed within a rounded nasal helmet. The head is surrounded by a plain inner circle and a dotted or beaded border along the lower periphery. The overall design is typical of the Völkermarkt mint output, executed in a bold but artistically simplified medieval style with no surrounding legend. |
