Obverse description Draped bust of Bishop Theodore Adolph von der Recke facing slightly to the right, wearing ecclesiastical vestments including a pectoral cross and a flat collar, with curled hair falling to the shoulders. A small goatee and moustache are visible on the subject's face. The portrait is set within an inner beaded circle, with the circumferential Latin legend reading THEODO. ADOL. EPIS. PADERBO. COM. PIRMON. The coin exhibits the characteristic irregular flan shape typical of mid-seventeenth century hammered thalers.
