| Obverse description | Panoramic view of the Munich cityscape in high relief, dominated by the twin onion-domed towers of the Frauenkirche at centre-right, flanked by the Peterskirche bell tower to the left and further ecclesiastical spires extending across the skyline. A dense rendering of rooftops and city walls occupies the middle ground, conveying the historic urban fabric of the city. In the lower centre, the Munich city coat of arms — depicting the Münchner Kindl, a robed monk with raised arms — is displayed on a shield set before the city walls. The dates 1158 and 1958, marking the 800th anniversary of Munich's foundation, appear in the lower field flanking the shield. The curved Latin legend IN HONOREM CIVITATIS MONACENSIS arcs along the upper periphery. |
