| Obverse description | Facing bust of Bishop Magnus, depicted with a crown or mitre, rendered in a somewhat crude hammered style typical of Baltic ecclesiastical coinage of the mid-16th century. The figure is shown in frontal view within the coin's irregular round flan. A circular Latin legend surrounds the bust in the field. The lettering abbreviates the bishop's full titles as ruler of Ösel, Courland, and Reval. |
