Obverse description Central field features the interlaced cipher of Duke Adolphus Frederick III of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, rendered as an ornate crowned monogram with elaborate script initials surmounted by a ducal crown with pearled arches. The date 1747 is inscribed vertically to the left of the monogram, while the mintmaster's initials C.H.I. appear in the lower exergue. The coin exhibits a milled or toothed border around the entire circumference, consistent with a carefully produced pattern strike in gold.
