| Obverse description | Central field dominated by the heraldic shield of the Livonian Order, displaying a plain cross quartering the escutcheon, rendered in relief with bold, confident die-cutting characteristic of early fifteenth-century Baltic hammered coinage. The shield is surrounded by a beaded or rope-twist inner border, beyond which four stylized fleurs-de-lis or foliate ornaments are disposed in the intervening spaces, lending the design a Gothic decorative character. The surrounding outer rim is defined by an irregular toothed or cable border consistent with hand-struck production. The abbreviated Latin legend MAGISTRI · LIVONIE · runs in the field around the design, identifying the issuing authority as the Master of Livonia. The overall composition is compact and strongly centred, typical of Reval Mint production under Master Zisse von Rutenberg. |
