Obverse description Draped bust of Charles of Lorraine facing right, depicted in episcopal attire with mozzetta or cape visible at the shoulder. The effigy is rendered in a bold, slightly crude hammered style characteristic of early 17th-century Lorraine coinage. The legend encircles the bust in Latin, reading along the inner border of the coin's field.
