| Obverse description | Square klippe flan bearing the arms of Frankenthal at center, surmounted by the denomination numeral XV BATZ(EN) below. A peripheral Latin legend incorporating the city name and the date 1623 surrounds the central device, reading BATZ / XV FRANCKENTHALER • NOTH • M • 16 • 23. The design reflects the emergency nature of siege coinage, with lettering applied in a utilitarian style typical of Notgeld issues of the Thirty Years' War period. |
