| Obverse description | Three crowned heraldic shields arranged in a triangular composition: the central and uppermost shield, bearing the arms of Augsburg surmounted by a mural crown, flanked by two smaller crowned shields on scrolling cartouches — the left displaying a rampant lion and the right bearing a quartered design. The surrounding legend reads CLARITAS REIP . AUGUSTAE, and the date 1752 with a mintmaster's mark appears in the exergue below the arms. The field is plain, and the coin's border is decorated with a fine beaded rim. |
