| Obverse description | Left-facing bust of Duke Frederick I in high relief, depicted in three-quarter armored dress with a richly draped fur-trimmed collar and an elaborate netted cap, rendered in the Renaissance portrait style characteristic of early sixteenth-century German coinage. The effigy is contained within a beaded inner circle, with the ducal portrait occupying the majority of the field. A small engraver's or mint mark cross appears to the right of the bust in the field. The surrounding legend reads FREDERICVS DEI GRA SLESVICEN ET HOLSAC DVX, separated by rosette stops, identifying the ruler as Frederick, by the Grace of God, Duke of Schleswig and Holstein. |
