| Obverse description | Armored bust of Elector John George IV facing right, wearing a flowing allonge wig and cuirass, with a diagonal sword visible across the chest and a plumed helmet placed before him. The effigy is rendered in high relief in the late Baroque style characteristic of late 17th-century Saxon coinage. A beaded inner circle separates the portrait from the peripheral Latin legend. The circumferential legend reads: IOHAN.GEORG.IV.DG.DVX.SAX.I.CL.MANGRET.WESTPH. |
