| Obverse description | Half-length frontal effigy of Emperor Charles V, crowned with imperial crown and clad in armor, holding an upright sword in his right hand and the imperial orb in his left. The figure is contained within a beaded inner circle. The Latin legend encircles the effigy, with the mint mark positioned at the conclusion of the inscription. The composition reflects the imperial iconographic conventions of the early sixteenth century, emphasizing Charles's dual role as Holy Roman Emperor and King of Spain. |
