Obverse description Standing armored figure of Wolter von Plettenberg, Master of the Livonian Order, depicted in full length facing forward, wearing a cloak and holding a sword in his right hand and an orb or shield in his left. The figure is rendered in a Gothic style typical of early 16th-century Baltic coinage, set within a plain field. A circular legend in uncial Latin surrounds the central device, divided by rosette or dot stops. The overall composition reflects the heraldic grandeur associated with the Livonian Order's monetary tradition.
