| Obverse description | Right-facing draped bust of Dr. Martin Luther occupying the central field, rendered in high relief with fine detail to the hair and clerical collar. A circular legend surrounds the portrait, reading 'DR: MARTIN LUTHER' along the upper arc and '*EIN VESTE BURG IST UNSER GOTT*' along the lower arc, referencing Luther's famous hymn 'A Mighty Fortress Is Our God.' The coin features a reeded border encircling the entire design. The portrait style is characteristic of early 19th-century German neoclassical medallic art. |
