| Description de l’avers |
Central field depicts a stylized frontal bust, likely representing the count or a religious figure, rendered in the crude but expressive Romanesque die-cutting style characteristic of early 12th-century Austrian bracteate-influenced pfennigs. A prominent raised hand or scepter-like vertical element rises from the center of the design, flanked by pellet ornaments and scroll-like decorative forms. The inner field is enclosed by a beaded inner circle, with additional pellets and cross motifs visible along the outer border. The overall composition reflects the archaic, highly stylized iconographic conventions of the Bavarian-Austrian monetary tradition of the Formbach comital mint. |

| Description du revers |
The reverse presents a schematic, heavily stylized figure — likely an equestrian or standing armed warrior — rendered in the coarse, deeply struck manner typical of hammered pfennigs from the Formbach comital series. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, with a fragmentary pseudo-legible legend running along the outer border, composed of letter-like forms that do not constitute intelligible Latin text. The die work is characteristic of provincial Austrian minting of the early 12th century, with bold relief and deliberately simplified figural elements. The irregular flan edge and weak areas of strike are consistent with the hammered production technique of the period. |
