| Obverse description | Quartered coat of arms surmounted by an ornate crown occupies the central field, displaying the heraldic devices of the Duchy of Neuchâtel and the House of Orléans-Longueville. The shield is rendered in the hand-struck style characteristic of late 16th-century hammered coinage, with visible die wear across the relief. The date 90 (for 1590) appears in the field flanking the shield. A beaded inner border surrounds the design, with the abbreviated Latin legend running along the outer margin. |
