| Obverse description | Central field features the crowned Hessian lion rampant displayed within an oval shield, the shield itself enclosed within an elaborate baroque cartouche with scrollwork and foliate ornaments. A large royal crown surmounts the oval shield above. The coin has no peripheral legend, the entire design being dominated by the armorial composition occupying the full flan. |
