| Obverse description | Central field features an ornate cursive royal cypher 'PA' (for Paul Friedrich August) interlaced in script style, surmounted by a heraldic princely crown with cross finial. The monogram is rendered in an elaborate calligraphic style typical of German states of the period. A circular legend runs along the upper and lower periphery, separated by the design, reading 'GR. HZL. OLDENB. FÜRSTTM. BIRKENFELD', denoting the issuer's title and territory. The coin's border is defined by a continuous ring of fine beading. |
