| Obverse description | Crowned and draped bust of Emperor Charles V facing right, rendered in high relief in the Renaissance portrait style. The emperor is depicted bearded, wearing an elaborate crown and armored dress with a prominent collar, conveying imperial authority. The effigy occupies the majority of the coin's field, with fine engraving detail visible in the facial features and regalia. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait, separated from the inner field by a beaded border. The inscription identifies Charles by his imperial and royal titles. |
