| Obverse description | The obverse displays the Polish eagle displayed, with wings spread wide and tail feathers rendered in stylized foliate form. The eagle's head is turned to the right, with an initial monogram — the letter 'S' for Sigismundus — positioned above the breast between the wings. The bold relief of the hammered strike lends a characteristically irregular flan with no surrounding legend, the entire field occupied by the heraldic eagle device. |
