Obverse description Draped and armored bust of Frederick William I, King of Prussia, facing right, wearing a long curled wig and a cuirass adorned with ornamental detail. The portrait is rendered in high relief in the Baroque style typical of early 18th-century German thalers. The circular Latin legend surrounding the effigy reads FRID • WILH • D • G • REX • BORVSS • EL • BR •, abbreviating his titles as King of Prussia, Elector of Brandenburg. The coin's milled border frames the design with a fine toothed rim.
