Obverse description The obverse is dominated by a large central heraldic vignette of the Hohenzell coat of arms, surmounted by a crowned helm with a spread eagle as crest and flanked by two armorial supporters, all set within an elaborate baroque cartouche of scrolling acanthus foliage rendered in dark brown and gold tones. Denomination numerals '20' appear in oval guilloche panels to the left and right of the central vignette. Below the arms, a multi-line Gothic-script inscription names Joseph Reichsfreyherr von Haslingen and records his biographical details as parish priest and benefactor of Hohenzell, while the title legend 'Gutschein der Gemeinde Hohenzell' runs across the top margin in bold blackletter.
