| Obverse description | Full-length armored figure of Wolter von Plettenberg, Landmaster of the Livonian Order, standing facing in three-quarter view within a beaded inner circle. The figure is depicted in full plate armor, holding a drawn sword upright in the right hand and a heraldic shield bearing the cross of the Livonian Order in the left hand. The face, rendered with a short beard, is turned slightly upward, conveying authority. A circular Latin legend surrounds the inner beaded border, reading MONE · NOVA · MAGRI : LIVON - I :, identifying this as the new coinage of the Master of Livonia. The entire composition is executed in the bold, high-relief hammered style characteristic of early sixteenth-century German goldsmiths' work. |
