| Obverse description | Central field features a large Gothic letter 'N' surmounted by an ornate crown, flanked on either side by the date numerals split across the field. The design is contained within a beaded border. The Gothic 'N' is rendered in a decorative calligraphic style typical of 17th-century German municipal coinage. |
