| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Franz I facing right, rendered in high relief with finely detailed hair and lace cravat. The emperor is depicted wearing armour with an elaborate mantle, reflecting the baroque portraiture style prevalent in mid-18th century Habsburg coinage. A continuous Latin legend surrounds the effigy along the rim, with beaded inner border. The portrait is bold and naturalistic, characteristic of the Prague Mint's engraving tradition. |
