| Obverse description | Armored bust of Duke Ernst Johann von Biron facing right, depicted in military cuirass with decorative detailing at the shoulder, rendered in a confident Baroque portrait style. The effigy is set within the coin field with a circular Latin legend surrounding it. The portrait conveys authority and dynastic dignity characteristic of mid-18th century German princely coinage. |
