| Obverse description | Three small adjacent heraldic shields arranged in a triangular composition: the arms of Mainz at upper left, the arms of Worms at upper right, and a quartered escutcheon of Winneburg and Beilstein bearing a central inescutcheon with the Metternich arms in the lower position. An electoral hat (Kurhut) is depicted above the central arrangement, denoting the Archbishop-Elector's dignity. The shields are rendered in the late Baroque style typical of late 17th-century German ecclesiastical coinage. |
