Obverse description A seated allegorical female figure, crowned and draped, holds a caduceus in her left hand and extends a laurel wreath in her right. A lion reclines at her left side, while the panoramic skyline of Hamburg with its characteristic church spires and a harbour scene with sailing ships fills the background in fine relief.
