| Obverse description | Allegorical composition set within a milled border. At centre, a standing female figure personifying Frankfurt is depicted facing forward, her left hand raised toward a radiant all-seeing eye enclosed within a triangle emanating rays of glory from above. To her left, a reclining river god (personifying the Main) holds a stone architectural element, resting beside a barrel. To her right, a second reclining figure (personifying the River Rhine or Commerce) holds a trident and leans against reeds. At the centre-lower field, the Frankfurt civic shield displaying an imperial eagle is displayed on a draped cartouche, flanked by a globe and helmet. The city name FRANCFURT appears in a rectangular tablet in the lower exergue, while the circumferential legend A DEO ET CÆSARE · FRANCFURT· runs along the upper periphery in Latin. |
