| Obverse description | Draped armored bust of Duke Augustus the Younger (August der Jüngere) facing right, wearing elaborate lace collar and intricately decorated cuirass with foliate ornamentation. The duke is depicted with a full beard and moustache, his hair worn short. A beaded inner border frames the bust, with the legend running along the outer periphery. The portrait is rendered in high relief in the baroque style characteristic of mid-seventeenth-century German coinage. |
