| Obverse description | Central field features a stylized depiction of the Lüneburg castle gateway, a multi-towered fortified structure rendered in medieval Gothic style, serving as the city's heraldic emblem. The castle motif is boldly struck in high relief with flanking towers and an arched entrance gate. A beaded inner circle frames the central device. The circumferential legend MONETA LVNEBVRG runs in Gothic uncial script around the periphery, separated from the inner field by a beaded border. The flan is irregular and slightly cupped, characteristic of hammered medieval coinage. |
