| Obverse description | Draped bust of Bishop John Philip Anthony facing right, wearing elaborate ecclesiastical vestments richly adorned with embroidery and a pectoral cross suspended on the chest. The subject wears a flowing curled wig characteristic of the mid-18th century Baroque style. The legend encircles the effigy along the periphery, separated from the coin's milled edge by an inner border. The finely engraved portrait demonstrates high-relief craftsmanship typical of German ecclesiastical coinage of the period. |
