| Obverse description | Central field dominated by the cursive royal cypher 'FW' (Fridericus Wilhelmus) in large interlaced script, surmounted by a Prussian royal crown rendered in high relief. The monogram fills the majority of the flan, executed in an elegant calligraphic style characteristic of late 18th-century German coinage. The field is plain and unadorned, with no surrounding legend. The overall design is simple yet regal, focusing attention entirely on the crowned royal cipher. |
