| Obverse description | Armored bust of Margrave Charles William Frederick facing right, depicted with long flowing curled hair, wearing elaborately detailed plate armor with a draped mantle over the shoulder. The peripheral legend runs along the upper rim, while the lower exergue contains the commemorative inscription in two lines referencing the Augsburg Confession and the Roman numeral date. The engraving displays the refined baroque portrait style characteristic of Georg Wilhelm Vestner's medallic work. |
