| Obverse description | Enthroned facing figure of Duke William V, depicted in regal attire with a crown, holding a sceptre and orb as symbols of ducal authority, set within an inner beaded circle. The field surrounding the enthroned effigy is adorned with decorative foliage elements in the Gothic Renaissance style typical of Rhenish hammered coinage. The circumferential Latin legend, interrupted by ornamental stops, reads GVILEL D G DVX IVLI GELRI CLIVI AC MONT CO MAR ZVI Z I RA D A RAVE, identifying the ruler by name and his multiple titles across the united duchies. |
