Obverse description Frontal enthroned figure of Albrecht I depicted in regal vestments, holding a sceptre in the right hand and an orb in the left, surmounted by a crown. The ruler is shown in a stylized, hieratic manner characteristic of late medieval German hammered coinage. Flanking the central figure are smaller attendant figures or heraldic elements. A beaded inner circle frames the composition, with a partial Latin legend running along the outer periphery.
