| Obverse description | Draped bust of Archbishop Clemens Wenceslaus of Saxony facing right, portrayed within an ornate laurel wreath tied with a ribbon bow at the base. The effigy depicts the Archbishop in ecclesiastical dress with a lace jabot. The two-line legend is divided by the wreath, reading around the upper portion of the coin. The overall style reflects late Baroque portraiture typical of German ecclesiastical coinage of the 1770s. |
