| Obverse description | A crowned Prussian eagle displayed with spread wings occupies the central field, its breast bearing a heart-shaped escutcheon containing the royal cypher of Friedrich Wilhelm III. The eagle holds a scepter in its dexter talon and an orb in its sinister talon, rendered in the neoclassical style typical of late 18th-century German coinage. The composition is bold and heraldic, with the crown surmounting the eagle's head as a symbol of royal sovereignty. |
