Obverse description Armored bust of Albrecht von Wallenstein facing right, depicted in three-quarter view, wearing articulated plate armor with a lace collar visible at the neck and a commander's sash across the chest. The portrait is rendered in a bold, somewhat crude hammered style characteristic of early 17th-century Bohemian coinage. The effigy is contained within a beaded inner border, with the Latin legend running along the outer rim of the field. The truncation of the bust is cut low, exposing the upper torso and pauldrons in considerable detail.
