| Obverse description | Central quartered shield displaying the composite arms of the joint Anhalt princes, with an eagle occupying the sinister half and horizontal bars and crosses filling the dexter quarters, all within a beaded inner circle. The peripheral legend, rendered in Latin capitals, runs around the coin face and abbreviates the names of the six co-ruling princes: Christian, August, Rudolph, Louis, John, and Casimir. The date 1621 appears within the legend. The overall style is characteristic of early seventeenth-century German hammered silver coinage. |
