| Obverse description | Facing full-length figure of St. John the Baptist, the city's patron saint, holding the Lamb of God (Agnus Dei) in his arms; the crowned shield of Lübeck's civic arms is displayed below the figure, with a smaller shield bearing the mayor's arms positioned to the left. The composition is rendered in high relief in the late baroque style typical of north German municipal coinage. The date 1661 and the Latin legend encircle the design within a beaded border. |
