| Obverse description | Central field displays the heraldic eagle of East Friesland within a beaded inner circle, the eagle shown with spread wings and a decorative breast shield bearing the county's arms. The surrounding legend, rendered in Latin, reads the abbreviated titles of the three joint ruling counts — Edzard II, Christoph, and John — separated by rosette stops. The design is characteristic of mid-sixteenth-century German hammered coinage, with bold relief and a beaded border framing the entire composition. |
