| Obverse description | A heraldic eagle displayed facing left with head turned to the right, rendered in high relief in the Gothic style typical of medieval Mosan coinage. The bird's wings are spread and its plumage is depicted in fine feather detail, with talons visible at the base. The central device is enclosed within a plain inner circle, surrounded by a beaded border. The circumferential legend in uncial Gothic lettering reads ✠ ADVLPhVS ⋮ EPS ⋮ LEODnS, identifying Adolph, Bishop of Liege, with word separators between each abbreviated element. |
