| Obverse description | Central field dominated by two large uncial Gothic letters 'W' and 'A' in raised relief, representing the joint monogram of Dukes Wilhelm (William I) and Albrecht (Albert IV or V) of Austria. The letters are boldly rendered in a characteristic late-medieval uncial style, occupying nearly the full flan. The coin exhibits the irregular, roughly circular flan typical of hammered medieval pfennigs, with a granular, textured field surrounding the central device. |
