| Obverse description | Draped bust of Landgrave Louis VIII facing right, wearing a flowing wig with curled locks, rendered in the Baroque portrait style typical of mid-18th century German coinage. The effigy is depicted with fine detail in the drapery folds at the truncation. A Latin legend runs along the periphery, separated from the portrait by a beaded border. |
