| Obverse description | Crowned rampant lion passant to the left, rendered in relief within an unadorned field. The lion, emblematic of the Reuss princely arms, is depicted with raised forepaw and curled tail, surmounted by a small crown. The design is bold and compact, consistent with the modest module of this minor copper coinage. |
