| Additional information |
Rudolph I's acquisition of Styria came through the defeat of Ottokar II of Bohemia — first diplomatically at the Peace of Vienna in 1276, then decisively at the Battle on the Marchfeld in 1278, one of the largest cavalry engagements of the medieval period. Graz mint production under Rudolph reflects the administrative consolidation that followed, as Habsburg officials replaced Bohemian ones across the duchy's minting operations.
CNA D20 is a thin, bracteate-influenced friesacher type. The Graz mint had been operating under Ottokar's authority for over a decade before Rudolph's takeover.
