| Obverse description | Central field dominated by the quartered Saxon arms, displaying the alternating barry and rautenkranz (rue crown diagonal) divisions characteristic of the Ernestine line of Saxony. The shield is surmounted by a ducal crown rendered in the crude but vigorous style typical of early seventeenth-century hammered pfennig coinage. The overall design is contained within a plain, irregular flan with no surrounding legend, consistent with small-denomination bracteate-influenced coinage of the period. |
