| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Ferdinand II facing right, with broad curled hair, a necklace, and the collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece suspended below. Behind the neck in the legend field appears a crowned twofold Hungarian shield, while to the right a Madonna figure stands on a crescent. The effigy is rendered in the mannered Habsburg portrait style characteristic of early seventeenth-century Central European coinage. |
