| Obverse description | Struck as a square klippe with chamfered corners, each corner bearing a small rosette or pellet ornament. At centre, a circular raised die area displays a Silesian eagle displayed, with wings spread, facing front, within a beaded or dotted inner circle. The surrounding circular legend reads MONETA · ARGENTIÆ · SILESIÆ · 1/2 TALER O·, rendered in Latin capitals. The overall design reflects the emergency siege coinage tradition, with the central motif characteristic of Silesian heraldic imagery. |
