| Obverse description | Draped bust of Prince Joseph William Ernest of Fürstenberg facing right, with flowing curled wig and elaborate lace cravat, rendered in high relief in the Baroque manner engraved by Georg Wilhelm Vestner. The portrait is boldly modelled, occupying the majority of the field, with fine detail in the hair and drapery. A circular Latin legend surrounds the effigy along the inner border, identifying the ruler by his titles. The coin is struck within a beaded border characteristic of Nuremberg milled coinage of the period. |
