| Obverse description | Displayed eagle with spread wings, head turned to face upward (north); a small sphere or pellet is placed beneath each wing. The central device is contained within a plain linear circle, forming the border of this uniface bracteate-style issue. The overall style is characteristic of early 14th-century Austrian provincial coinage, with bold, stylized heraldic execution typical of hammered Pfennige from the Duchy of Carinthia. |
