| Obverse description | Unfinished effigy of King Albert II rendered in a bold, sculptural style, depicted in three-quarter view facing left, with naturalistic modelling of facial features including heavy brow, prominent nose, and loosely defined hair. The portrait occupies the central field and displays the raw, experimental character typical of an obverse trial piece, with no surrounding legend or inscription. The field around the effigy is plain and unpolished, consistent with a pattern or essai strike intended solely to evaluate the proposed royal portrait design. |
