Obverse description Bust of Archbishop Hieronymus von Colloredo facing right, depicted in ecclesiastical vestments including a mozzetta and rochet, with a clerical cap upon his head. The effigy is rendered in high relief with fine engraved detail to the drapery folds. The circumferential Latin legend reads HIERONYMVS D G · A · & · P · S · A · S · L · N · G · PRIM, abbreviated from his full titles as Prince Archbishop of Salzburg and Primate of Germany. The legend runs along the upper and right portions of the coin's border, with the inner field otherwise unadorned. The portrait style is characteristic of late 18th-century Austrian ecclesiastical coinage.
