| Obverse description | Left-facing laureate effigy of King Leopold I of Belgium, his head adorned with an oak-leaf crown, rendered in high relief with fine portraiture detail characteristic of engraver Braemt's style. The king's bust is truncated at the shoulder and set against a flat field. A circular legend in French surrounds the effigy, and the engraver's signature 'BRAEMT F.' appears at the lower truncation. |
