| Obverse description | A small pointed shield bearing the bipartite Wittelsbach arms: the upper portion displaying the Bavarian lozengy field (fusilly bendwise), and the lower portion charged with a fleur-de-lis. The shield is set within a plain inner circle, with no surrounding legend, consistent with the anonymous bracteate-influenced small coinage of the Palatinate region. |
