Obverse description Crowned effigy in armor to the left, scepter in his left hand, sword hilt in his right hand. The obverse is already a nice work of the beginning Renaissance. The masterful portrait in high relief and the incident to let the bent left arm extend into the legend, testify the great skill of Benedict Burkhart.
