Obverse description Central field displays the quartered civic shield of Hildesheim, divided into four quarters alternating plain and crosshatched fields, all within a beaded inner circle. The shield is rendered in the late Gothic heraldic style characteristic of early 16th-century German municipal coinage. Surrounding the shield, the circular legend reads MONETA*NOVA*HILDESEM in Gothic lettering, separated by star-shaped ornaments. The legend is contained between two concentric beaded borders forming the rim.
