| Obverse description | Laureate draped bust of Emperor Joseph II facing right, with long curled hair falling to the shoulder. The mint mark (A for Vienna) appears in the exergue below the truncation. The encircling Latin legend is interrupted by the portrait and reads continuously around the field. The effigy is rendered in a refined neoclassical style typical of late 18th-century Habsburg coinage. |
