| Obverse description | The central field bears a six-line religious inscription in capital letters arranged concentrically, reading 'EIN HERR / EIN GLAUBE / EINE TAUFE / EIN GOTT / UND VATER / ALLER', a quotation from Ephesians 4:5–6. A circular legend surrounds the inscription along the rim, identifying the issuer as the united evangelical Christian community of the Free City of Frankfurt. The lettering is deeply and crisply engraved in a plain, rectilinear style characteristic of early nineteenth-century German ecclesiastical commemorative coinage. The field is flat and unadorned, with no figural imagery, the text serving as the sole decorative and devotional element. The milled edge is clearly visible in profile. |
