Obverse description Within a raised inner circle bordered by a beaded corded rim, a detailed panoramic view of the city of Nuremberg with towers, spires, and fortifications spread across the middle ground. Above the cityscape, radiating sunbeams emanate from a central oval cartouche bearing the Tetragrammaton in Hebrew characters (יהוה), symbolizing divine providence. The three-line Latin legend and date appear below the city view in the exergual area. The square klippe planchet features decorative foliate and floral corner ornaments with a reeded inner border.
