| Obverse description | Central device depicts the Hamburg castle emblem, rendered in fine relief: a three-towered fortified gate with rusticated masonry walls, flanking towers surmounted by domed turrets with decorative finials, and a central arched gateway flanked by two circular port-holes. The castle motif is presented in a clean, unadorned field typical of early nineteenth-century German municipal coinage. Below the castle, the mintmaster's initials H · S · K · appear in Roman capitals, separated by raised dots, serving as the sole inscription on this face. |
