| Obverse description | A rampant lion facing left dominates the field, rendered in bold relief in the late Renaissance style, its mane finely detailed and tail curled. The lion supports with its forepaws an ornate heraldic shield bearing the arms of Strasbourg, flanked by elaborate foliate and cartouche mantling. A circular Latin legend runs along the upper periphery, reading MAIORVM LIBERTATI TVEND, referencing the defense of ancestral liberties. |
