| Obverse description | St. Martin depicted on horseback, his sword raised to divide his cloak for a seated beggar shown below in the field. The coat of arms of Weert appears in the lower field beneath the horse. The entire design is framed by a continuous Latin legend contained between two pearled (beaded) circles, with the lettering rendered in a characteristic late medieval hammered style. |
