| Beschrijving voorzijde | An eagle displayed facing right, bearing a triangular shield on its breast, rendered in the flat, stylized manner characteristic of medieval Austrian bracteate-influenced pfennigs. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle with an outer pearl border. The striking is irregular, as typical of hand-hammered coinage of the period, with flat areas and weak relief in parts of the flan. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | An heraldic shield, displaying the Austrian fess, positioned above a decorative foliate tendril or vine motif, all rendered in low relief consistent with the hammered technique of 13th-century Austrian pfennigs. The design occupies the central field, with the tendril providing an ornamental base element below the shield. The flan is irregular and the strike uneven, as is characteristic of this coinage type. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Rudolph I of Habsburg seized Austria in 1276 after defeating and killing Ottokar II of Bohemia at the Battle on the Marchfeld two years later, and these pfennigs belong to the brief window when he was actively consolidating Habsburgcontrol over the duchy. The Vienna mint operated under considerable political pressure during this period, as Rudolph needed coinage to pay troops and administrators in a territory he had only recently wrested from one of the most powerful rulers in central Europe.
