Obverse description Draped bust of Duke Eberhard III facing slightly right, depicted with long flowing curls and a lace collar over decorated armor, rendered in the high-relief Baroque style characteristic of mid-17th century German coinage. The portrait is set within a beaded inner circle, with the Latin legend divided by the effigy running along the outer periphery. The facial features and elaborate wig-like hair are finely engraved, reflecting the courtly portraiture conventions of the period.

The date 1647 appears within the field above the shield. The Latin legend encircles the reverse, completing the full titulature of the duke.
