| Obverse description | Bare-headed right-facing bust of Emperor Leopold II occupying the central field, rendered in the neoclassical portrait style typical of late 18th-century Habsburg coinage. The effigy features the emperor in civilian dress with lightly powdered hair tied at the nape. The bust is framed on either side by a decorative laurel wreath, the branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow, whose stems flank the lower field. The circular Latin legend runs along the outer border, interrupted at the base by the mint mark letter. The overall design follows the standard portrait type established for Leopold II's short reign. |
