| Obverse description | Facing crowned bust of Saint Peter rendered in a crude, stylised manner characteristic of early 16th-century Baltic hammered coinage, positioned centrally within the field. The bishop's crown surmounts the head, with simplified facial features and draped shoulders visible below. A partial circular legend in uncial Latin characters surrounds the effigy, reading S · PETRE · OR · P · NO, an abbreviated invocation to Saint Peter as protector. The flan is irregular and the strike uneven, with portions of the legend partially off-flan. |
