| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a large oval quartered coat of arms of Bavaria, featuring the characteristic blue and white lozengy field of Bavaria combined with the Palatinate lion rampant, surmounted by an electoral bonnet. The escutcheon is elaborately supported by decorative scrollwork and flanked by two rampant lions as supporters. A small central inescutcheon bears the orb of the Holy Roman Empire. The date 16-24 is divided at the base of the shield. The circumferential legend, rendered in Latin, reads: MAXI: D:G: COM: P: RH: V. BA. DVX. S. R. I. AR. ET. EL, referring to Maximilian I as Count Palatine of the Rhine, Duke of Bavaria, Archduke and Elector of the Holy Roman Empire. |
