| Obverse description | Within a beaded inner circle, the shield of Corvey arms is depicted centrally, showing a lozengy or diamond-patterned field surmounted by a cross, all enclosed within a plain circular border. The heraldic shield is rendered in the typical flat hammered style of early 16th-century German ecclesiastical coinage. A circular Latin legend surrounds the inner circle, reading the city attribution of Höxter. The overall design is characteristic of the small hammered silver coinage of the Westphalian abbey. |
