| Obverse description | Draped and armored bust of Emperor Charles VI facing right, wearing a flowing long wig with elaborate curls cascading over the shoulders, rendered in high relief in the baroque style. The emperor is shown in laureate military attire with ornate pauldrons and a lace cravat visible at the neck. A mint master's initials appear on the truncation of the bust. The circular Latin legend surrounding the effigy reads CAROLUS VI D G R I S A GER HISP HU BO REX, identifying the emperor by name and his numerous royal titles. The entire design is framed by a finely executed milled border. |
