| Additional information |
Rudolf I of Habsburg and Meinhard II of Tyrol ruled Carinthia jointly following the death of Ottokar II of Bohemia at the Battle on the Marchfeld in 1278, after which Rudolf parceled out the southeastern duchies to consolidate Habsburg influence without absorbing the territories directly into dynastic holdings. The St. Veit mint — long the preeminent striking facility in Carinthia — continued producing these small bracteate-influenced pfennigs through this co-rule period and well into Meinhard's sole administration after Rudolf's death in 1291.
The CNA Cb58 classification places this among a closely related series of St. Veit issues distinguished by subtle die variations that specialists use to narrow dating within the thirty-year window.
