| Obverse description | Draped bust of Archbishop Charles Henry of Metternich-Winneburg facing right, wearing ecclesiastical vestments adorned with decorative embroidery, his flowing hair falling to his shoulders in the Baroque style. The effigy is set within a raised inner circle, with the Latin legend distributed around the periphery. A small floral ornament separates the legend above the bust. The portrait displays fine Baroque workmanship characteristic of late 17th-century German ecclesiastical coinage. |
