| Obverse description | The central field bears a four-line Latin inscription in roman capital letters reading XVI / GUTE / GROSCHEN / MDCLXXVI, denoting the denomination of 16 Gute Groschen and the date 1676 in Roman numerals. The legend of Count Gustav of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Hohenstein runs continuously around the periphery, separated from the central inscription by an inner beaded border. The coin's surface shows typical late 17th-century milled production with a plain edge and a bold, upright typographic style characteristic of German States coinage of the period. |
