| Obverse description | Bare-headed right-facing portrait bust of King Carol I of Romania, rendered in high relief with fine detail to the beard and facial features. The legend CAROL I REGE AL ROMANIEI arcs around the upper periphery, following the coin's border of beaded dentils. The engraver's signature KULLRICH appears in small capitals beneath the bust truncation. The portrait is executed in a classical academic style characteristic of late 19th-century European medallic art. |
