| Reverse description | A leoparded lion passant to the left, rendered in the schematic, heavily stylized manner typical of mid-thirteenth century Styrian pfennigs. The feline figure displays characteristic heraldic posture with raised forepaw and curling tail, representing the Styrian heraldic panther or lion device. The design fills the compact flan with bold, low-relief strokes, consistent with the hammered technique and the crude but vigorous artistic conventions of Babenberg-era coinage. The field is plain, with no legend or border inscription. |
