Obverse description The Hamburg civic arms — a turreted castle with open gate — displayed within an arched portal surmounted by a crown, all rendered in Gothic relief. The date appears at the end of the surrounding circular legend. The legend, in uncial Gothic lettering, reads MON E` + HAMBVRG`, identifying the coin as a monetary issue of Hamburg. The overall style is characteristic of late medieval North German hammered coinage.
