Obverse description The arms of the Free City of Augsburg occupy the central field, depicting the city's pine cone shield supported by two allegorical figures seated on either side of a central globe or orb. Above the shield, a crowned imperial double-headed eagle spreads its wings. The date is inscribed in the exergue below the supporters, flanked by small stars. The circular legend AVGVSTA VIN - DELICORVM runs along the periphery, identifying the city in Latin.
