| Reverse description | Central field displays a highly stylized architectural motif comprising three towers or turrets, the central tower taller and flanked by two shorter lateral towers, all rising from a stepped or arcaded base. Two S-shaped ornamental elements appear between the towers, possibly representing stylized columns or decorative fills. The entire composition is set within a beaded inner circle, surrounded by a partial marginal Latin legend in degraded form, largely illegible due to the irregular flan. The bold, schematic architectural design is typical of the Romanesque tradition of Austrian regional Pfennig coinage of the early 12th century. |
