| Obverse description | Central field displays the interlaced cipher 'CA' — the monogram of Bishop Christian August — rendered in an elaborate calligraphic script with foliate flourishes and scrollwork. The monogram is surmounted by a bishop's or princely crown, occupying the full field of this small flan. No surrounding legend is present; the design relies entirely on the ornamental monogram as the principal device. |
