| Obverse description | Central shield bearing a rampant lion to the left, set within a beaded inner circle. The circular legend surrounding the shield reads CVSVS DVSSELDORP with the date partially incorporated into the legend. The design is executed in the late medieval hammered style typical of small German territorial coinage of the mid-17th century. |

The surrounding circular legend reads NVMVS IVLIACEN, identifying this as coinage of the Duchy of Jülich. A cross ornament separates the legend elements.
