| Obverse description | Central field displays the quartered coat of arms of Brandenburg-Ansbach, featuring the distinctive checkered (lozengy) pattern of the Hohenzollern arms, surmounted by a princely crown. The shield is flanked by laurel branches on either side, with the mint mark 'S' (for Schwabach) appearing below the shield within a small circle. The peripheral legend 'LAND MUNZ' arcs across the upper field, with a finely milled border encircling the entire design. |
