Obverse description A four-quartered heraldic shield occupies the central field, displaying the arms of the Livonian Order Master Heinrich von Galen. The shield is framed by a circular Latin legend running along the coin's periphery. The overall composition is characteristic of mid-16th century Livonian hammered coinage, with the devices rendered in a bold, somewhat crude relief typical of the period.
