| Obverse description | Central device depicts the crowned bull's head of Mecklenburg, a forward-facing bovine head with detailed fur engraving, surmounted by an arched ducal crown with beaded ornaments. The bull's head is affronté, with stylized ears extending laterally and a collar or shield element visible below the chin. A circular Latin legend surrounds the device reading HERZ. MECLENB. SCHW. LANDES MUNZ., denoting the territorial land coinage authority of the Duchy of Mecklenburg-Schwerin. The overall design is executed in a robust, Germanic provincial style characteristic of mid-eighteenth-century German state coinage. |
