| Obverse description | Draped bust of Bishop Charles III Joseph of Lorraine facing right, wearing a long curled wig, with the numeral denomination below the effigy rendered in an oval cartouche. The legend, in Latin, runs along the coin's periphery without an inner circle. The portrait is rendered in a late Baroque style typical of early 18th-century episcopal coinage. |
