Obverse description Armored and crowned half-length bust of Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian II facing right, holding an imperial scepter in his right hand. The date 1573 is divided on either side of the figure within the inner circle. A continuous Latin legend surrounds the inner circle, interrupted at the base by a small heraldic shield. The overall composition reflects the portrait conventions of mid-16th-century German-Bohemian hammered coinage.
