Obverse description The obverse displays the Polish royal eagle displayed, with wings spread wide and head turned to the right, rendered in the bold, somewhat stylized manner characteristic of hammered coinage of the early sixteenth century. The eagle's body features feather detailing across the breast and wings, with pronounced talons visible at the base. No surrounding legend is present, the eagle device occupying the entirety of the irregular, unstruck field. The coin's small flan and hammered technique give the design a robust, slightly off-center character typical of this series.
