Pfennig - Ulrich III St. Veit

Ulrich III ruled Carinthia during a period of sustained conflict with Ottokar II of Bohemia, who ultimately forced Ulrich to cede the duchy in 1269 — the very year this issue ceases. The St. Veit mint, located in the duchy's administrative center, was the dominant striking facility for Carinthian coinage throughout the thirteenth century, and its output under Ulrich reflects a monetary administration still functioning under pressure of an increasingly untenable political situation.

The CNA Cb28 classification places this firmly within the bracteate-influenced friesacher tradition, though struck as a full pfennig rather than the thinner bracteate fabric common elsewhere in the region.
