| Obverse description | Large interlaced FW royal cypher of Frederick William I occupying the central field, surmounted by an ornate royal crown. Below the cypher, a curved banner carries the denomination inscription reading '12. EIN. R. T.' (meaning 1/12 Reichsthaler), separated by stops. The design is rendered in a bold, graphic style typical of early 18th-century German milled coinage, with the monogram dominating the flan. |
