Obverse description Three heraldic shields arranged in trefoil formation, representing the territories of Hesse, Ziegenhain, and Nidda. The shields are displayed within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin legend of Landgrave William II running along the outer periphery. The arrangement is characteristic of late medieval German territorial coinage, with each shield bearing its distinctive arms. The field between the shields is largely plain, emphasizing the bold heraldic design.
