| Obverse description | Central field features the distinctive Augsburg pine cone symbol — the city's heraldic emblem — rendered in high relief with detailed scale-like texture, mounted on a decorative pedestal and flanked by elaborate Renaissance scrollwork and foliate ornaments. The pine cone device is set within a beaded inner circle. The circumferential legend reads AVGVSTA VINDELICORVM with the date MDLXXII (1572) distributed around the periphery, separated by small lozenge stops. The overall design reflects the refined hammered craftsmanship characteristic of late 16th-century South German municipal coinage. |
