| Obverse description | The city arms of Magdeburg depicted as a fortified gateway comprising two crenellated towers flanking a central portcullis gate, with a displayed eagle rising above the gate in the upper field. The design is rendered in the bold, somewhat crude style characteristic of wartime emergency coinage. No peripheral legend is present on this face. |
