| Obverse description | Armillary sphere depicted in the central field, rendered in a crude, stylized manner consistent with cast base-metal coinage of the period. The sphere is shown with intersecting bands forming a globular grid pattern, surrounded by a plain raised border. The design occupies the full flan with no surrounding legend. |
