How was Austria ruled out?


I guessed the last possible coin from Austria before Keith changed his answer. Now no coins from Austria match criteria!

Ok, I'm stumped.

Diameter less than 13mm
Red and white flag
1122-1321
Not issued in Asia
Precious metal
Doesn't border North Sea
Date range spans 30 years or more

No coins match this criteria set.

I'm for nailing down the size.

Is this coin 10mm or larger in diameter?

Nice list NumisEd, but there are zero coins on numista from any of those places that match all the criteria.

There are a lot of coins from Hungary in the time period 1122-1321, BUT the royal coat of arms does have some green it. Then again, the Dynastic Standard is red-white striped.
