| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Franz Joseph I facing right, wearing a laurel wreath tied with a ribbon and an elaborately embroidered military uniform with decorative collar. The emperor is depicted with his characteristic side-whiskers and moustache in a finely detailed high-relief portrait engraved in the classical tradition. The circumferential Latin legend reads FRANC·IOS·I·D·G·AVSTRIAE IMPERATOR, separated by pellets, running from lower left to lower right. A beaded border frames the design, with the Vienna mint mark 'A' appearing at the base. |
