| Beschrijving keerzijde | A crutch cross, its four arms terminating in transverse bars, occupies the central field, with a sphere or pellet placed in each of the four angles formed by the arms. The entire device is framed by a double beaded circle, consistent with the peripheral ornamentation found on contemporary Carinthian pfennige of the late 12th and early 13th centuries. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Ulrich II ruled Carinthia during a period of sustained tension between the Babenberg dukes of Austria and the Spanheim dynasty, to which Ulrich belonged. The Spanheims had held Carinthia since 1122 and made St. Veit an der Glan their ducal seat — the mint there operated under direct ducal authority rather than episcopal control, which was unusual for the region and gave coins of this type a more consistent production standard than many contemporary Austrian bracteate issues.
CNA Cb8 represents one of the better-documented Spanheim pfennig types, though die combinations across the roughly twenty-year striking window mean individual specimens vary considerably in sharpness.
