| Obverse description | Bare-headed right-facing effigy of King Johann of Saxony, rendered in high relief with finely detailed curling hair. The truncation is plain, with the mint mark F appearing below at the bottom border. The surrounding legend, separated from the effigy by a beaded inner border, reads IOHANN V.G.G.KOENIG V. SACHSEN F. The portrait displays a classical academic style consistent with mid-19th century German coinage. |
